To the v Gurus out there I need some expert opinions mainly with injector and fuel rail upgrade. I have the following mods about to go on:

Motordyne TDX 2 exhaust

Motordyne MREV 2 bottom intake

5/16 spacer

Stillen z tube and k&n filter

Once completed ( 2 weeks hopefully) ill b taking it in for chip upgrade and tune, not sure what but there a garage here in Perth GTI Performance that has a finger on the pulse with V's and Z's.

So is it worth upgrading the fuel rails and injectors to optimise the mentioned mods? If so what?

All opinions are appreciated peeps

Cheers

If the existing rails and injectors are able to supply enough fuel, I can't see any benefits with changing them.

With the mods you mentioned, the factory injectors should be able to cope easily. If you want to tune for E85, you might need larger injectors though.

Cheers guys I pretty much thought the stock fuel system was up to it but don't we all look for that little bit more lol.

As for e85 fuel its of no use to me seeing as my V is an everyday car and its expensive enuf of premium 98 as is.

Is there any other NA mods I should consider guys? And has anyone heard bad reviews on out the HKS Circle grounding kit? I'm also going to utilize 1 seeing as I have an auto ( I know I know lol ) and I know it'll help with shifting and my sound system.

Scotty PM me the details for the transgo kit defiantly interested but might have to wait till next month wifey ain't to impressed with my expesive car hobby ATM lol.

As for Tokyo Motorsports I haven't heard good or bad reports only found them on here but ill be calling them Tuesday for a run down and ill post the findings here.

No worries, it's too late now anyway, I am fitting it to a car at the moment. :P

I will be placing another order Transgo soon, let me know if you want one and I will order a few extra kits. They take 2-4 weeks to get here.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
