8, my passenger side power window is messed up. As soon as it gets to the top of travel it goes back down half way! I know this has nothing to do with the engine work/TT but I might as well throw that in too, as it just started doing it yesterday. I'm sure it is related to the body shop not setting the limit switch correctly when they put my new door on

FYI, show your shop this link.

Good luck anyway and can't wait to see your dyno. Maybe I'll bring down my G with the APS ST installed for side by side comparison.

Its not my 'tuner,' its the place that did the motor build. It started off that they were just going to build the motor, mount the turbos, then drop everything in. But, somewhere along the way they decided they wanted to do as much of the installation as possible, and I think they soon realized they got in over their heads. They are used to working on big block chevys and fords, and not acustomed to working on foreign TT motors. I have confidence that they built the motor as good as or better then any shop could do, as that is their main focus - race engines. The guy who did the work had many interesting observations and comments, and time will tell if his assumptions were right or wrong. Hopefully I won't have any engine problems....

The shop that has the car now is based around FI street cars. They know how this stuff is all supposed to look and work. I have total confidence that they will get the car up and running in the two week time frame that they gave me!
