I see you have a guardian angel as well, Nick! :cool:

I've lost count of the times I've broken down in the driveway or within earshot of the house... [coffee]

In case anyone didn't see the other thread, looks like they're having some diesel drags at Little River in Temple on 9/27.

Maybe something for our more "southern" members.

I just saw that... Didn't know there was a 1/4 strip in Temple... Only an hour from the fairfield shop...

Maybe an option for a future meet... Fri night fun drags or something and then cruise to FF for wrenching etc...

Sounds good then you can tell me how to do it! EGR deletes avail for these cars? Sure there is? Would like to just do away with it altogether...

Yup.........too short....

bnold 09-23-2008 12:38 PM

$120 doesn't sound too bad?? Vag Com can adjust for it not being there anymore? Any drawbacks??

From one who doesn't want to search on Jetta Forum

Hey Brian, any comment on the deal I offered you? (look back in the posts)

bnold 09-23-2008 01:23 PM

Be glad to help, really not sure on my status heading to Houston yet though...

Duallydog 09-23-2008 01:50 PM

Well, get yours figured out so I can figure out mine.

03RAMBUNCTIOUS 09-23-2008 05:23 PM

that diesel drag sure sounds fun..

i am meeting up with Cbrahs this weekend for a NM truck gathering, I will see if they are just as lively as them OKIE boys are in the DFW meets.

Notice we have a few VW TDI members here. Very cool. Maybe we should arange a Jetta bombing day?

bnold 09-23-2008 09:12 PM

I'm up for getting rid of EGR stuff... Never had a real problem with it, but I imagine my intake is nasty...

atleast with those cars you can afford to drive 200 miles for a meet.

yay for diesel prices dropping a bit.

Diesel-Dan 09-24-2008 01:48 PM

True that....i have a TDC module in my car now...and it does pretty good...i compare it to an Edge EZ on a Dodge respectively.....the guy im borrowing it from said I can also try his injectors when he pulls them out…..[guitar] (But i lack the Vag to tune in the bigger sticks.....[dummy])

BUT anywho…..Brian..check your e-mail…..the PT one….

Thanks for the info.... need to do some research on it... Vag Com is yours to use whenever...

Trying to leave everything else stock... Getting rid of the EGR has to help out keep things clean inside...

Man I'm up for that as well!! I'll bring beer!

XLR8R 09-24-2008 10:48 PM

Daniel, get that P7100 off your 12V (you know, the one with the nasty amount of timing) and lets P-pump somebody's Jetta... I'll bring the welder! [laugh]

How 'bout 1 Jetta, 2 TDIs... extra 4 holes can go in the trunk! :o

Sounds like I'll need the plasma as well... [laugh]
