So when are you getting tuned? ;)

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

I'm hoping by the end of this month, I don't know how far ahead Shane is booked but I'll call him when I have the car together and the cash.

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

Nice build makes me want to find a clean 1g. Nice work man!

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

Thank you!

Update: Ive installed all piping from turbo to throttle body. Installed fuel rail, fuel filter and lines. Pulled the right rear strut to fix upper mount issue, and right now the fuel tank is draining out the old E85. I also bought cleaner headlights than the ones pictured above. I installed the Innovate wideband kit/gauge, and calibrated it. Installed the ecu and bought a laptop to keep in the car, did the first test connection with V3 tonight. I plan on starting the car for the first time tomorrow night.

I just need to buy gasoline and some gear oil.

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

Nice!! You got through this pretty quick!

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

hey hey looking nice:banana:!

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

Started it yet?

Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build
 

Thanks!

Yes, I got it started last night, runs really well. I drove it around the block a few times, which revealed a heavily leaking transfer case and a terrible scraping type noise from the driveshaft/transfer case area. I havent checked it out very well yet, besides making sure the heat shields were clear from the driveshaft. So I have a few things to fix before getting tuned so I can daily drive this thing.
