Girls car is back under the knife.

HELL YAHH.

Big Thanks to Elliot and Jim for stopping by for the extra hands in the garage last night till 12:30!.

I had a whole host of codes when we fired it again last night. They were cleared and once the motor chilled out and idled until it was up to opperaiting temp they stayed away. Engine shows great oil pressure and everything looks fine. Coolant system/bottle I cobbed up needs some help though. The cap is a 14-16psi cap… and I guess the vw system is a much higher pressure so i need to find another cap.

We welded up the mother of all rebars for the front end. I cut the plates off the old one and welded in a 2"X2" 1/4" thick tube with some gussets on the ends for a better weld to the VW rebar plates I reused. I then mounted the 3/4" square tube frame I made to hold the heat exchanger for the WAIC setup. Shit is legit, and will take a hit and shrug it off… it is strong. Were 3 pipe clamps short but plumbed and wired the WAIC system just need to clamp the last hose and add water.

Tonight we need to bleed the slave cyclinder, check the PS res and plug the coolant over flow port someone blew a hole in upon construction. Swap some wheels and tires and throw the rear pads and rotors on.
