Post by: Giles@PerformanceDiesel on March 27, 2007, 11:00:55 pm: Hi everybody

I have some fantastic news that i have been holding onto for about
6 months now.

I am starting my own Diesel Fuel Injection shop!!!!!

It is called

PERFORMANCE DIESEL INJECTION LTD,.

MARKHAM, ON.,
L3R 2R9
905-940-2266

We will be opening officially next week i just gave my two weeks
notice in yesterday.

i will be leaving some time next week.

please do not send any pumps to the old address, if u do i cannot
be responsible for what happens to the pumps.

i will be offering the same kick ass performance pumps and
hopefully even more options in the near future.

of u.

Giles Gallie

It's always better, and more satisfying, to be

self-employed.

Good luck!

Will there be any changes on how pumps are shipped to you, besides address of course?
Any changes in the price structure?
Care to elaborate on some of the new options you will be offering?
How long do you expect the delay from transition to be before you are up and running in your new shop?
I just sent you a e-mail yesterday about sending up my pump. Glad I havent shipped it yet.

Thanks, Jim

Post by: Kudagra on May 02, 2007, 11:08:59 am: Mine is there now. I got a call at 730 am ( I missed it ). I sent a letter with it explaining what I was doing with it...except what he wanted to know.. Boost level and intercooled or not. Real nice to talk to him.

For the US people...they charged him a $25 customs fee. Just remember that when you send it.

THANKS GILES!!

i must honestly say... that i would revoke their Canadian citizenship if i could do so. i think if you mark it as a commercial sample, there is no fee... then again... a dirty old pump isn't such a great commercial sample lol

I really don't know. The engine/pump are from a Passat. Here are detail pics, can anyone tell me what it does? (NOTE: Pump now in stealth semigloss black)

Post by: zukgod1 on May 07, 2007, 05:46:56 pm: I have a question on pump plunger sizes.
I found a post on here on how to decifer the #'s on the side of the pump and it works on one of my pumps (it's an 8mm) but the second pump has a differant set of #'s and the coversion doesnt work.
Ya know what. No reply needed. I'll get the #'s tonight when I get home and post.
I'm about ready to send off a pump I just want to make sure I'm sending the best one I have as to plunger size.
