    Help: Not a duramax but its a diesel!

    Tdiclub is pretty good but theres a lot of people on there that aren't too mechanically inclined and a lot of people who are totally against deleting and tuning them, but then also theres a guy with one that has a twin turbo setup lol

    Help: Not a duramax but its a diesel!

    Hey thanks! Yea i read a lot into the deal. Seems like the ones that didnt have DEF injection might be retrofitted with it to pass. At least thats what everyone on the tdi forum thinks. Which is going to suck for me if i take the fix. But VW still hasnt announced how they will fix all them. They...

    Help: Not a duramax but its a diesel!

    Yea it sure is, going to keep it all just in case. Not sure what will come out of the VW diesel scandal. The exhaust inside after the dpf didnt have a bit of black soot in it. How bad could it really be ya know?

    Help: Not a duramax but its a diesel!

    Just figured some of you guys might get a kick out of my tdi golf. It's 2.0 common-rail inline 4 diesel. Finally got around to deleting and tuning it. I did a full turbo back exhaust with a resonator to delete the dpf. It had an interesting egr. Had a low pressure and high pressure egr system...

    Allison 5sp: Weird fleece tap-shifter problems

    No this was all happening with the fleece ali locker un-touched. Just happened out of the blue. The tap shifter worked fine this morning going to work, kind of odd. Ill see what happens. Either way i think ill talk to fleece tomorrow and see what they say.

    Allison 5sp: Weird fleece tap-shifter problems

    Over a year ago when i installed my built trans it came with a fleece tap shifter as well as a fleece lock up box. Anyhow it has all been working just great for over a year and now tonight all of a sudden the tap shifter decided to start acting all sorts of goofy. I went to use it to downshift...

    LLY: Fuel sending unit, is this normal?

    I pulled my bed off today to clean up my frame and paint it but i noticed on my fuel sending unit theres a nipple with a quick disconnect with just a straight hole through it. Is this a vent? And if so should it have a hose on it? Or is it supposed to be plugged? Here are a couple pics. Just...

    LLY: Quick question on efi live capabilities

    Ok thanks guys, makes sense now. It is neat to experience how different tuners tune a daily driver for power. Its amazing what these guys can do to these trucks. Yea switching on the fly wouldn't be a necessity. Just thought it would be fun to tinker around with both sets of tunes. I just didnt...

    LLY: Quick question on efi live capabilities

    This may be a stupid question but as the old saying goes there's no such thing as a stupid question, right?! Haha anyhow i tried searching on this but couldn't come up with much. A year or so ago i got my efi live with ridge runner diesel via an autocal. Great tuning and enjoyed it but after i...
