thanks....and dude in our part of the world its a common swap....since we dont get the parts to built the orignal gtti engine....4efte becomes the automatic choice ....they fit in well and make gttis go pretty fast....

and i also want to finalize between getting an apexi safc-II or a piggy back ecu like "obit" since they can do other jobs like ignition timing & boost cut etc (but do i really need that?)

@all bdw my car had an hks fcd....which i have just sold...since i figured i wont be going over 1 bar so i wont be needing it.....so wanted to confirm that the ecu wont cut fuel upto atleast 12 psi...on my ct-9b....am hoping?

thanx man...

yeah my ct-9b spools up around 4k rpm i guess.....so fmic is better then!

cauz am fairly new to turboing....am still learning the best combos and from wat i have read from some places is that fmic's are only benificial when u r using big turbos on high boosts....on smaller setups (like mine...ct9-b on 7-10 psi) tmic tends to do a better job since they have shorter pipes and are less laggy....dat true? and bdw Safc-II a good buy?

@ all thanks guys...yeah it goes pretty well.... should get a boost controller and an safc-II in few days.....would boost it up to 10-11 psi for an occasional drag then;) guys at my settings would the fmic give me significant performence edge....or shud i just keep the tmic setup and make hood scoop for it asap...am confused

Hey guys, I got myself a new ride ...so i though i should join these forums and share my car. Its an 88 Charade gtti with 4efte conversion. Has a slightly bigger turbo, bigger tmic, hks fcd, ssr wheels. Its currently set on 7 psi as its my daily driver, the engine bay was not cleaned as you can see in the pics:P... oh yeah i need to get the hood scoop made for the tmic....its bloody hot in our part of the world these days... http://img140.imageshack.us/my.php?image=s...heelscomnk8.jpg http://img142.imageshack.us/my.php?image=s...heelscomrx5.jpg http://img142.imageshack.us/my.php?image=s...he
