Not so much what I've done, as what someone else has done.
Stolen a photo of ROH ECHT car to use in their ad.

I was scheduled to go to Techtonics Tuning for a tune-reload today but their tune guy didn't show. So I just did some adaptation of the throttle and runner flaps and looked at the fuel pressure tests to check that all of the fuel pumps and pressures were OK...as far as the test instructions allow. I go to TT, if he is present, tomorrow :happy2:

Didn't load the tune when finally had the chance as it is the same that is loaded. So, been working on it myself: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,108946.msg1054872.html#msg1054872 and http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=197386

Currently having 4 refurbed injectors and an RS4 fuel return valve fitted. Injectors to hopefully cure an intermittent misfire, and RS4 valve in prep for a hybrid k03. Thought it made sense while the manifold was off anyway. Tyres next..

It counts!  That's 98oct yes? Highest pump fuel we get here in Oregon is 92oct and 93oct back East.

I believe they grade Octane differently in the states though.

UK std unleaded "95"octane = is what they call 90/91 octane in the USA

UK "super" "97/99"octane = is what they call 92 /93 octane in the USA

I've read about this before, but forget all the details. I think the difference is one is octane and the other is RON.
Kind of like the difference between kilowatts and horse power.
