Hi Rudi
Sorry to hear about this, looks like you might have it sorted, that EJ must look tempting when your sitting at the side of the track.

You could say that im paitient but u have to be stuborn as well going to sort this thing out, but i love my vws was thinking about going to the dark
side and have 2xwrx engines siting in the garage e8 haltech just in case i need more power,but one good week end like last sunday u foget about wrxs
(some woud say shit u spent a lot of time working on the car hows that a good weekend) sorted the intermitant 0il pressure after 12 months mate im
smiling again,u know there is no cure for the love of fast vws just medication which is racing them,any way dropped the engine out last night brand
new kennedy stage 3 pressure plate and 4 puck ceramic clutch slipped under power,so dropped it off to KB CLUTCH ENGINEERING ,this guy can sort these
things out have heard good reports from other racers,car is off to dyno on monday to set up data loging on the afr meter and see if wee can do
something about fuel economy,the engine uses more fuel than a v8 supercar is running wide open throttle mixtures of 12.1 to 10.5 safe but fat as
cheers Rudi
