But dey is all alkeyhol!

 

As stated before, I wired the main power wire from the controller for the w/m to the fog lights (controller tells the pump when to turn on based on the airflow to the MAF. for instance, I have mine set to begin 10% injection at 3.0 volts signal from the MAF sensor, then 100% injection at 4.5v from the sensor. I set the 100% injection threshold very high so I dont waste methanol unless the pedal is completely floored basically)

I did this so I can just turn the fog lights off if I want NO INJECTION whatsoever at any airflow level.

This comes in handy for what Nate was talking about because I removed my VTDA cover during the w/m install... and now I can hit the fog lights and it kills the injection and I can tell if the power increase is coming from the VTDA cover removal... or the w/m.

btw... both made a difference.

Got unisettings to work.

Haven't really had much chance to mess with it... I didadvance the timing by two increments of 0.75 deg each. 1.5 degrees advanced total. I didn't notcie ANYTHING though. Really new to this.. so I really don't know what I'm looking for as far as changes. Will it need to be more than 1.5 advanced?

Anyhow... I didn't do anything with the boost though. Pretty sure I still have a boost leak since I never did get those hoses in yet. I can't even get the boost to go up with the boost machine now past 16psi. I used to get a solid 25psi when i wanted to. I normally ran 22-23psi though. Now i can't get the boost up at all. So Im not messing with that until after i get the hoses.

Can someone please explain to me a catch can... where it goes... and what it does? I've asked a million times and all I seem to get is that it collects oil from one of the air hoses to keep it from cycling back into the engine??!

 

Audis/VWs have a mini-catchcan. It's the black round thing that is about 3" in diameter and fits into the intake hose. There is another hose (about 1") that comes off the valve cover. While a lot of people swear by them, I think it's just trying to outsmart the real engineers. Some cars, such as Saab, have large oil traps, but we don't.

 

I dont have any such thing.

I've taken a lot ofmy car apart and Im not sure I've seen that before. where's it located?

 

Anyone have a good link to "Vag-Com for dummies"? Or would you say Vag-Com is probably something Dummies shouldn't use at all?

Still haven't noticed any difference after the Timing advance using Unisetting. -shrugs-

 

I think your talking about the PCV valve, thats no catch can.

 

What part of Georgia?
