Good luck with it. I always did like those cars. Those and CRX’s were my ideal car back then. I never did get either of them. ☹

is it a turboed G60 or a vr6 turboed? Good luck i heard corrados had shitload of wiring issues. but dont worry i’m sure you can hit up 16vcabby for some advice.

its definitely fuel issue, the guy is in MD.

I can still buy the SDS that i sold to a local kid working on a project then he stopped. but the corrados fuel system is more receptive to boost then the Jettas was. Especially with habes help since he has test and tuned this engine.

its going to be some thing for me and my dad to work on in our free time… not a daily driver so it can be more of a project
