vibration under load.

so...i have a 92 awd talon tsi. i have replaced the head and set all the timing marks correctly and triple checked them. i was snooping around the forums and stumbled on a thread that was talking about lack of power and knock count.

one thing i was thinking is that i have installed the cas 180* and that is causing the vibration. i have replaced the drive shaft carrier bearings as i have seen and felt problems like this before. got this knock issue going on for a while now and know a few things that need to be done to be sure that there not the problem but im at a point that ill just be slacking on the gas till i get all the parts on there and everything ruled out.

is it possible that the cas is 180*? not making any power till about 3500-4000 rpm. it idles kinda weird but i was thinking that it was just the hks grind 272 cams. was thinking that the knock count might also be from a napa brand knock sensor. any ideas?

have replaced all components.....
-i have replaced the drive shaft carrier bearings. along with solid alum mounts
-poly motor/trans mounts.
-clutch/ flywheel
-front cv axles
-lowered car from stock to 2.5 in of tire to fender clearance.

i got a new tre intercooler that needs to be installed.im working on that. will be buying a water/meth injection kit.

thanks for the time. im kinda stumped at this point.

did you have your drive shaft balanced yet it, may be out of spec.

also where is this vibration/sound coming from?

i can feel it in the front/ steering wheel. looked all around the forums and have not found a case like this. well not that i know of but a few post's make me think there are a few issues that im over looking.
