Man that sucks....I could see how this could easily be done as well. jettared so looking at this picture the screen side screws into the elbow?? I have the throttle body adapter plate like you and I thiought it screwed screen side down into that?

 

:EEK:[sm=insomnia.gif] No, no, no. Don't do that. Keep the screen filter away from the inside of the engine. The screen filter should always point back toward the pump!

 

Yeah that screen filter is what came off and went through my engine. DON'T PUT IT ON THAT WAY!!!!! SCREEN FILTER INSIDE!!! Not out!

So, what's the update on your car?

 

Thanks! So I should do it as follows.....check valve>elbow>nozzle with screen side screwed into elbow>throttle body adapter plate. Man we could have had another go down!!! Hate to hear about your troubles paintballguy.....I would have put it the same way! When I was playing around with my kit I had it screen side screwing into the throttle body adapter. The end of the screen side was flush with the inner circle of the adapter plate. Hmmm....maybe I will just pay a known VW/Audi shop with experienceto install the kit because I have no problem admitting my ignorance on with W/M. A few extra bones might be worth it.

 

Do what you feel is comfortable, but you don't need to be afraid of this. Just read all the stuff concerning this install and ask questions if you are uncertain. Call Devil's Own and ask. Here's a post on my install.

The biggest challenge (after mounting everything), I think, is splicing into the MAP control signal. Don't use the quick connector that comes with the kit--it's too big for our skinny wires. But carefully strip the insulation off and solder it. (I used a razor blade to carefully cut the insulation without cutting the metal strands of wire.)

 

The car is still down. I will be going to the shop on Thursday to finish putting it back together. SO HOpefully I will be driving it again soon. Once I get it back though I am selling it. I can not afford the car. I should not have bought it.

that sucks. thoughts on next car?

 

Here are a couple more 3rd gear pulls. The first run is at 4.5 degrees advance timing and the second is at 3.75 degrees advance. Both are with the larger 5 gph nozzle. They were done within 10 or 15 minutes of each other. (Boost is the crimson line.)

 

Here are the two 4.5 degree pulls with different nozzles. However, they were on different days.
