I bought a COP (plug and play) setup a while ago, it was a 'direct plug in' to replace the OEM coil. When installed, my idle jumped from 1000 RPM to about 2000 RPM. Just to make sure it was not caused by something else, I swapped it back to OEM and the idle was perfect. Switched back to COP and...

Ok, did some research and seems to be some 'opinions' on this question. I bought a set of Delta Regrinds (272/272) and they did not come with shims. Some research indicates that if you use the 3G lifters, they have enough 'range of motion' that shims are not required. Others note to use shims...

Many of the questions posted here can be answered by reading the Factory Service Manuals. They explain 'how things work', provide specs, wiring schematics, torque specs, component testing info, Troubleshooting Flowcharts, etcMost of the posts which note access/download the DSM Service and...

This story you will not believe !! I have a 95 talon, factory wiring, the Coolent Temp Sensor has the oval connector. I have bought FOUR SENSORS and NONE are correct! Autozone had wrong one (wrong readings), so did Advance Auto, (it had square connector). Finally I went to NAPA, and they had the...

I could not find the answer on how the EGR 'system' is tested via the OBDII diagnostics, and if it 'passes the test' does it confirm the EGR system is not the cause of a Boost Leak? (EGR system is all stock). No current CEL'sReason for the questions is during a BLT, I hear air 'somewhere'...

I hear that you can reuse a stock T25 Oil Drain on a 16G upgrade. Well, I cannot seem to get it to work. (see pic). Unless you can 'stretch' the line somehow, this will not work. I can get the very end of the line (by the one bolt hole) to 'touch' the turbo, but the other end is about a half...

Looking for inputs/experience... So, I have this 16G, all four mounting points to the manifold are stripped. And one 02 housing bolt uses a SS SAE bolt, since it was retapped to fix it. (The previous owner was kind enough to send the bolt WITH the housing.) I have all new OEM bolts, washers...

I have finally purchased ECMLink V.3, thus another new user of this great software! This post is focused on a couple things, the CTS reading and O2 cycling. I started the motor and noted the air intake temp was about 84F, about same as outside temp, the CTS read 13F, and the O2 was sitting about...

I am gathering all items to install new a new turbo and noticed I did not pickup a new stud to mount the O2 housing to the turbo hotside. (I did get the new bolts). I was searching through my other new, OEM parts and found an exhaust manifold stud (the larger one), which fit nicely into the...

Fighting a No-Start...did alot of reading and testing. But this postis focused on the question "Is there a quick way of verifying the fuel pressure is at least OK to run/start the motor"?. I read the following on another site, but would like verification:"In the past I have pulled my fuel...

Hi Guys (& Gals)... Sorry I could not make the meet...previous commitments. However the pics look great! I was looking forward to meeting all the local 'tuners', but hope to make the next one. Anyway, have these large items that keep getting in the way, and would like to provide them a good...

Hey Guys/Gals, As stated, I need these for both sides. Actually, it seems the lower parts behind the SMIC/marker lights are gone! (although the rest of them are present!) So, I either need the 'end parts' or the whole inner fender well covers. Please Let me know what you have...(or if there...

Hi Guys, I am hoping that someone would be looking to part with some 'extra stuff' just laying around. So, I have a Ported Small 16G w/J-Pipe, O2, and FMIC I would like to install on my 95 Tsi, but missing a few things. I believe I can bend around the T-25 water lines, but I 'think' I need...

Just spent this weekend putting 99 Eclipse doors, fenders on a 95 Talon TSi. When we tried to put the Eclipse hood on the Talon, it would not latch fully closed. We removed all four rubber 'adjusters' from the Talon and the hood would hit the top of the headlights, and there was a one inch gap...

First Post...I have searched on many sites, but if I have missed the answer, I apologize! I need to identify the correct Catalytic Converter for a 95 Tsi. Most of the net vendors indicate that the same cat fits both the Turbo (4G63) and non-Turbo (N/A). The 'test pipe' on the car has both ends...

Hi Guys! First, I have tried to find the answer to this question and talked with suppliers...obviously I am confused. I need to replace the cat on a 95 TSI, it currently has a test pipe. The flanges on both end are exactly the same, parallel to the ground. What I find on the suppliers site is...
