    The Official Unofficial FAQ for Big Turbo FSI owners.

    Not Vdub related but big turbo related. This was one of the owners cars where I dynoed. It's running mid 500whp on 93oct and built to run E85 which he said puts down mid 700. If I remember right it's a pte6262. Not a big Honda fan but the build looked well done.

    The Official Unofficial FAQ for Big Turbo FSI owners.

    Got it hooked up for the most part. Still waiting on my intake from PPT so I can try it out. So how much clutch chatter is normal. It's worse with the a/c on. I'm just on edge about any trans noise after my last incident. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-zAzho3mIU&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    The Official Unofficial FAQ for Big Turbo FSI owners.

    Does anyone have any idea of what the tread size might be for my ebc. It's a Gizzmo IBC-R but the solenoid looks identical to most other ebc setups. I thought 1/8npt but the thread is different. I am having trouble with GizzmoUSA contact form on their website

    This is what I ended up doing. Part of me wishes that I didn't care as much as I do about a clean install. I spent more time hiding and tucking wires than I did hooking things up. It's not about show but it's gotta look clean.

    you can see mine was leaking at the turbo outlet. I tightened mine more but I didn't notice any "lean". Sometimes you can loosen the clamp and spin/readjust it to fix the leak.

    ECS filter housing

    Does anyone have one of these? I just got one and it keeps leaking. I torqued it as instructed and it leaked all over my garage. I took it off adjusted the seal and it was better but still leaked. Has anyone had this issue? The seal that came with the new filter looks ok.

    The Official Unofficial FAQ for Big Turbo FSI owners.

    Maybe I wasn't as lucky as I thought. Best case scenario is to clean up the surfaces, check run out, and roll with what I've got. Worst case is a new flywheel and crank. I'll go with the first one for now. The crank is all metal transfer from the flywheel so either way I think it can be...

    So I found my trans/clutch noise! It doesn't look like it damaged the clutch disc or pressure plate.

    The best way to describe it is at idle or while driving(cruising or under power), it's like if someone turned the key of and then back on before the car fully shut of. When this happens the engine and epc light flash. There are no faults stored. I did a throttle adaption and it was ok. It...
