car would have ran great had you fixed the first pump.. but nice to hear it runs again. be a little more careful next time you take a pump apart..

have you done a governor mod yet? they are really fun, and sooooooo worth it!

plus, they are about 200x easier than re sealing the pump head.

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.

So are you going to fix the extra pump you have? they are pretty sought (sp?) after.

yea i had already done the govenor mod on my last pump, so i pulled the shim i used in my old pump and put it in my new pump while i had it out.
and no i don't have the old pump, i got the used one from gordons vw and he wanted the old core.
