Yes mate, still got bits to do to make it perfect but its been as reliable as clockwork T:

Jimmy :ILU:

 

I must have everyone then, not as many done as i thought there would have been.

 

I feel much more "special now"........

BTW my pics are back online......hopefully for good! (who can tell).
If I had 100 pic capacity in my T4 forum album instead of 50, I could host them much more reliably H:H:I:

 

Glad you are keeping it now bud, you wont regret it T:

 

Thanks for putting me on hopefully i can get it updated soon. body is all fixed and enthusiasm has returned lol

cheers jaz

 

Good to hear mate T:

 

First Blue dash - 97 tdi with imob conversion i belive, jan 09 still ripping about! T:

 

Cool, did you do a build thread?

 

any of you guys tried one of those plug in 'performance' units off fleabay ?

with the 16 inch wheels i am finding the towing a little taxing as it appears the gearbox ratios/turbo lag etc are bang on 50mph and just where i need the little extra torque.

they claim some impressive gains i guess through altering the fueling signal.

 

Its basicly just a Envy mod (see tdiclub forums) in a plug and play format, personally i wouldn't bother. I have thought about having one of THESE soldered into my ecu and plugging THIS into it. They have good feeback and it all seems legit. In theory it should do the job much better but the socket would have to be professionally fitted to the ecu by an electrical repair shop or similar to save damage to the unit.

 

got 30 mpg with the caravan on the back on a run to Whitby - but i never measured it before so nothing to compare.

the power is amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing and it just sits at 60 mph up hill or into a headwind which it never did before. also noticed that my foot is only lightly touching the pedal rather than being half way down. when its solo it goes like stink compared to the original conversion.

best bit is i can take it off so i need to find me a rolling road that will do a before and after to get a true comparision, but so far its been £50 well spent.

 

Good to hear some feed back bud, thanks T: Do you get much more smoke?

 

yeah you can get some smoke but the one i bought allows you to fine tune.

when you get it the seller has pre set it. when i fitted mine it did nothing so he advised to turn the screw 1 to the left, still nothing so turned another turn - bloody hell !!! smoke on tick over and barking like a V8 when you hit the throttle !! turned it back half and all good.

then whilst on the whitby run the folks behind commented on the smoke when under heavy load ( uphill or leaving junctions ) so turned it back another quarter and all seems good plenty of power and no smoke.

these things appear to be well tested and hundreds of miles have been covered by plenty on the tdi forum so compared to the £300+ custom remap i think it is money well spent so far.

been reading these threads and would love to give it a go but having trouble finding a donor car, apart from ebay any other place to look and what should i be looking for as in key words, so far i am using vw mk3 golf 1.9 tdi but i dont get much in the way of results also you guys who found donor cars for 350 are lucky bar stewards, 150k plus cars are going for 650 to 1000, and as my current engine is only 100k i would rather stick to lower mileage vehicles.

cheers

 

Try a local breakers bud, thats the best bet. They are out there but they are getting increasingly difficult to find.

 

You could put a link in for mine http://www.brick-yard.co.uk/forum/19-td-camper-tdi-conversion-finally-completed_topic53482.html

Finally got it done today! (and loving it!)
