paul,

glad to hear the cam gear went well. I thought you guys would do it pretty easy.

Didn't set the timing yet I hear mate? I guess if you head off to the dyno then you can try a few different settings. Good if you could post them afterwards.

I found that my VVT cam gear thingo has been scrapping metal on the dust cover all this time due to a dent. I pulled it off and it seems to have made the car a little faster. Now I am a rice boy without the camgear cover :)

    • Photo quality is terrible, but there's a few things on that board that give me suspicions it has some issues. Add to that, I'm hoping the cut and exposed wires under the dash were not exposed or touching each other before you pulled that all apart.
    • Stories like this are why the immobilizer installs I've done are 100% reversible. No harness cuts.
    • update; Replaced oem starter motor with a Jaylec 70-61111 car still didn't start, moved over to the alarm system unraveled the spaghetti checked the solder end points, PCB board burn smell, wiring ends, capacitors, water damage everything looked fine restarted car vroom. restarted 5 to 6 time over an hour started put every thing back together only to not have it start any more. looks like i will be removing the alarm system next weekend.      
    • Lots of people. Could be a lot of things like people have said. Either the heater hose/pipe, the turbo coolant return that wraps around the back of the engine, or a core plug. I have seen all three. If you want me to guess wildly though I would bet it's one of those hoses for the turbo coolant return. Or the brazing/welding for the Y- section has failed. Get a borescope down there to be 100% sure.
    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
