Giles' contact info (http://vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=3100) at his Secret Underground Lair (http://vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=11629).

Giles rebuilds Bosch VE Injection Pumps (or any pump you send I would imagine) and injectors. The pump just isn't rebuilt, its made into a "Super Pump" and makes our little 1.6L VWs go morebetterfaster, for about the same price any old diesel shop would charge for a regular rebuild.

As for what he does.... he can only be best described as an "Injection Pump Whisperer".  :lol:  Long Thread about the "What" (http://vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=9975) and another about the end product (http://vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=11550).

I have a pump and injectors on the way to him now, ask me about it in a month or so :D.

Consistent fuel delivery to 6400-6500 rpm! That is insane.

More than double ths cc's than a stock pump under full boost, again insane!

My pump is definately going to Giles, set on kill please :twisted:

Call and ask, I would imagine if there is a way to get it there and you are wiling to cover the costs he would ship it anywhere you'd like.

You got it!
We've sent pumps to South Africa and the UK before... not sure where else, but we'll send it anywhere you like, as long as you're willing to pay the shipping cost.  8)

And if I'm right, we've got your pump and injectors in here right now, Ziptar. Giles is away on vacation until next Tuesday (April 21) but I'm working on some of the prep work myself. I promise that the outsides will be nice and shiny, and you can be sure Giles will take care of the insides.  :wink:

BejamminR, Sweet! Thanks for the update. Giles told me he was taking a vacation but, I am on no hurry. I am in the middle of a move myself.

After my road trip I am all a twitter about the new pump and injectors!!! Shiny is a bonus!!!

All of our stuff winds up shiny and new-looking. We fully sandblast and/or wirebrush everything to brand new appearance. You saw the images and vids of TedV's pump, right? We make sure that everything looks at least that well, and if your setup can handle it, runs at least that well also. 8)

Hey guys, I'm new to vwdiesel and I've noticed a lot of people in North American are raving about Giles pumps; alot of the people over in the u.k are raving about the Rover 220TD pin; could you take the best of both worlds and put the Rover pin into the Giles pump? Might be a bit of a silly question weather it would fit or not, just something that crossed my mind! :wink:

ahhh, that would make more sense since he totally rebuilds the pump eh! :lol:. So what kind of HP #'s are people running off a Giles pump over stock? Cheers!

one of my favourite examples is one of his earlier pumps on his N/A 1.6L delivery rabbit. With no other mods at all, his pump increased engine output by 40%. That was 3 years ago! He has further refined his pumps since then.  :D

Hi, quite amazed by these pumps and the knowledge of Giles. I would love to have one of these pumps but i am in the UK

How much would it cost me to have a pump built and shipped across the pond?

thanks

Chris

You can call Giles and ask him

00-1-905-940-2266

To look at shipping go to www.canadapost.ca. And select rates, or get a quote. I forget what they call it on their site. Giles ships from postal code L3R 2R9
