Ok, so you're not using a turbo inj. pump. How does the power compare with the old engine after adding just the turbo? Just curious, since my TD is really weak if the enrichment hose is left off (as some VW "specialist" did after servicing my car :(. I also noticed however, that the engine runs *much* cooler when enrichment is not happening, which makes sense - less fuel=less heat. > EGT? - I had to order a vdo EGT gauge and an extra long wire extention to > get Do you have a source for these, and how much? What's the correct temp ranges for this engine? Shawn & Janis Wright '88 Westy (336k) '85 Jetta TD (363k) VWnut@smus.bc.ca (swright@smus.bc.ca) http://www.islandnet.com/~swright/vw.html
