I used the Boxter shifter because it has the the cable heading out the right way, and I've got it to work, but it's really stiff side to side, where it's supposed to be loose, so either something is up with the tranny, or there's a fundamental difference with how the Porsche tranny works compared to the VW. It can be worked out, I just haven't spent the time yet to figure out where it needs to be tweaked.

034 Efi

I imagine you are familar with the VWvortex (vwvortex.com)? The guys from 034 are very active in the 1.8t forums on the vortex. I have heard that the 034 customer support is excellent via the vortex and over the phone. I am helping a friend install 034 on his 1.8t Audi A4 this week. Which 034 unit are you using? Let us know how you like the EFI.

I love you project by the way. I'm sure the 1.8t forums would love to see some of the pictures you have posted here. Keep up the good work!!!

Thanks Levi! I havn't actually had a chance to get the engine running yet, but I have no doubt Javad will help me any way he can. Keep me posted on how your project comes. I got the IIc setup.

Thanks Steve, the Lokar guys were really not in the same catagory. It was all street rod stuff, and I suspect the Morse stuff is what I want. No progress at all lately, except for slow movement with the front brakes. Epoxy is down on the garage floor, so this weekend everything will be piled back in and I can start to organize. It sucks not knowing where anything is!
