And that thing is probably a workhose during the week.

I'd definitely drive one of those The way it sounds and moves...MOTHER OF GOD !

SPL comp next weekend, this means all next week I'll be chasing 1 extra dB. Gotta lay the smackdown from time to time

Pouring smoke under boost means he's not doing it right. Smoke does not mean power. i think it just has something to do with how the mod works.. once the boost builds up enough it stops smoking. in a very nonscientific test we measured a 0-60mph time of ~10sec, my friend said it was closer to 13-14 before. the mod consist of bridging a potentiometer across 2 pins on the fuel harness. here's something from a tdi forum "...what is happening is that the 10-pin connector (joining the main wire from the ECU to the Injection Pump) is being hot-wired into producing a different voltage, which alters or magnifies the ECU's signal in a similar manner that a Tuning Box does. This increases the amount of fuel the injection pump pushes and advances the timing..." You probably trick the engine into thinking it gets more air that it actually getting. Stupid mod and no way it will shave 3-4 sec off the 0-60 time. It will overfuel whenever he's off-boost. Hello high EGTs. Retune, bigger injectors nozzles, bigger intercooler (stock one is a joke) and bigger exhaust for starters. Now that's how you would go about modding a TDI, not with a resistor. What he said. Not to mention black smoke (aka soot) is toxic to the lungs and the environment. A well tuned diesel should make none, or at least very little off-boost

Have I ever mentioned I love Holsten ?

For your tractor? Yep, amazing machines. Rated at 28hp and I've seen one exceed 3500ft lbs at 250rpm. Sometimes technology takes a step back. Plus gotta love something you have to fuel with a fire you build! HOLY SHITE !

It's either a v6 or a v6. Could be any of them

The worse thing is that these people actually multiply.

Sorry, I could have done that a long time ago but I specifically DON'T want something else to dick around with. I even had an aux in adapter and gave it away. Without a HU I wouldn't have any sort of processing, which is not cool at all.

What iPod do you have? If you get a new one how much storage do you need? 4th gen, 20GB. It's more than enough storage but horrible reliability. I could do well with 4GB of storage, as long as it will play without hiccups. My phone's got 4 gigs of memory. It can take up to 8 (card). Did I mention it was released 5 years ago? Can I control it through my head unit ?

I was actually telling my dad about that exact speech this morning, right after he told me Steve Jobs died.

You probably only think about Ipods and Iphones. He probably had nothing to do with the way some Apple addicts act. To each his own...

I could do well with 4GB of storage, as long as it will play without hiccups. The HDD ones are prone to failure. Especially one that old. I had a 5th gen and the logic board went out so I sold it for parts and got a 160GB. If all you need is 4GB I'd just get a flash based nano. I had an iPod touch and it didn't play nicely with my Alpine or Pio HU. Roling back the iPods software to an earlier version(preferably before the hu was made) usually fixes any compatibility issues I'll have to try that...

My favorite track is track 50 from the dB Jams cd. It's 30 seconds of pure awesome 50 Hz sine wave

The good part is I just sold the cluster with the boost gauge so I got that money back. The engine it's mounted on makes 12psi under heavy load and I expect mine to be around 15-16, so the meter would have been pegged with the stock engine

I'm actually thinking about picking one to replace the BTL. Wonder how many burps it will take ?

Fuck ipods and apple. After the new hdd and battery, my ipod started freezing again when it's in the car. I hope I can get it working again without spending money and selling it so I can get a different version, maybe with better results. Is it too much to ask to have a bit more storage room instead of writing cd's with mp3's ?

Hey, I do use some of those tips on SPL setups

85 in MN today, 80 tomorrow 88/67 for the next five days here! Low 80s here. Fuckin love it. Similar weather here. Supposedly it drops to 50's in the weekend

Same here... I guess it's a sign I need some action...

Beautiful !
