I'd be worried about that hans pump. I bout a k14 turbo centre section from them and the compressor but hadn't even been tightened, and another time bought a timing belt tensioner and when I torqued it to the vw spec it cracked in half.

Yeah that's why is he worried, they're known for shoddy workmanship. The turbo I got was a fresh build and they didn't even tighten the most important nut. I've heard many other horror stories about them since also.

I have heard 10+ stories of pumps that were 'rebuilt' by Hans that would not run. I have never heard of a single person having one run right.

I would be inclined to try the other 1.6 pump on the engine just to see if it ran. Might not need that fancy td pump from what I hear. Try it and let us know. What do you have to lose but the time installing it and timing it.
Could be a solution for the short term. And would surely point to a faulty rebuild.

I'm going to swap the pumps today and if it runs I'll know for sure it's the rebuilt pump. Then I'll be dealing with hans to fix it!!

From everything I have heard, their customer service with pump issues is non-existent. I do not believe you will get any satisfaction. Next time do a little online research before purchasing from a company. Their bad reputation is rampant and very well-known online.

Where can I send this pump out to to have it fixed?? How much is it going to cost me?
Can i run this na pump in the meantime. I have to have it about 1/2 throttle for it to kinda idle. Have to adjust it. What's everyone's thoughts?
Engine sounds great tho. Did something right rebuilding it

I don't know what your power goals are but for not much more than your average rebuild cost you can send it to Giles and know your getting the best possible pump tuned exactly to your setup and power/fuel economy goals.

I want as much power as I can get as a daily as I can and it not blow up.
The clutch dont work now. I have a 020301107c that was in my pickup. And the turbo engine came with a 020301107h trans. Guess I'm going to have to switch that over and hope it works

My pump is in the mail back to hans! Will keep you posted how that goes. And trans is fixed the plate was cracked that the rod hits.
Is it safe to run my pickup with the na IP and stock boost. Till I get money back and money to send my turbo pump out to giles??

If you have to have the throttle lever about half way pulled to get it to idle then just mark the current location with some scratches or a good permanent pen and reset the lever to the counter clockwise direction. See if that helps you gain some RPMs.
But even before doing that how about a twist of the old fuel screw on the back of the IP. Twist it in a turn and does it bump up the idle? If so pull the throttle and see if you gained some top RPM. Might need to do it more than 2 times to get any power without getting black smoke belching out the tail pipe.
