Does anyone have any before and or after dyno numbers for an AAZ with a Giles pump? I've found lots of VERY positive reviews, definatly enough for me to feel very comfortable getting one, I'd just like to see some numbers to go with the "ass dyno" numbers already posted.
This thread was a great read BTW!

That's not the case with my pump, it defuels at 3500 and @ 3900 its done.
Steel sleeve where the spring used to be as well BTW.

Very impressed.
the MPG gain is equally impressive from your oem IP previous best
diesel IP truly = PCM on gassers. did you say smoke got minimize on acceleration.
got 1st diesel car 2 yrs ago and still in school on diesel IP
in gasser terms its hard to tune for gains in both power and MPG
mr. Giles is on top of his game

yeah I used to have very small amounts of smoke but it's pretty bad right now. I think my fuel filter is clogged, air filter needs changing and the injectors need to be replaced. I think I filled up with some very crappy diesel last time

I think itīs the advanced timing that increases both power and mileage. But itīs a thin line where itīs optimal, too far advanced and the cyl pressure and temp skyrocket. I guess Giles has done a few hours on the test bench...
I turned up the fueling on my Lucas IP, it adds the fuel in front of the injection stroke advancing the timing at the same time and I got more power for less fuel too!

I "raced" my cars twin last night. Basically it was a 91 Golf with a 1.6 NA. His pump was rebuilt 15000 ago by some shop and he has my old tranny, the POS AWY short ratio thing. We met up on the side of the road to discuss an engine swap and then decided to carry on to the nearby gas station. He was ahead of me and he pulled out and then I followed. I could see by all the black smoke he was foot to the floor, so I followed suit. With his short ratios he was able to slightly pull away from me in first and second (for me, probably second/third for him) but then I started coming up on him FAST. haha. I didn't pass him because we weren't really racing and the last thing I want is a racing charge. We were on a 2 lane highway. No excessive speed was involved, just accelerating hard up to about 20km over the limit. We were both still "racing" when I had to back off, it's not like he hit "top speed" and slowed down and that is why I caught him.
We drove each others cars after and he definitely was impressed
Yes I was definitely Impressed, although his car has less mileage, and has probably been better cared for, there was a huge difference drive-ability... Aside from the lack of Power Steering
For anyone who wants to know the story here, I've been wanting more power to my little 1.6n/a for some time. Looked into adding turbo, but a swap seems to make much more sense....
From some stroke of luck I got in touch with Tyler, we talked and agreed on swapping out my tired, and very smokey 400+Kms 1.6 with a fresher 1.6TD on it a Giles pump and maybe a few other recommendations from Tyler, Bigger down pipe? Increase to 20PSI?
Anyway, I look forward to this new chapter in my Golfs life. The numbers to this one will come.
I will most likely be giving whats left of my engine to Tyler, and so he will have a Bosch rebuilt pump, rebuilt about 15k-20k ago...

I think your engine will have better compression then mine, and mine has sat for the last 5 years so it's not in the best of health.
Power Steering is over rated

I am going to have my 1.9 AAZ TD engine rebuilt and was looking at getting a Giles pump. Does anyone have numbers with one of his pumps on a 1.9? Is there anything I should have done different during the engine rebuild to help out to get better numbers? What kind of injectors should I use, the GTD or the mercedes ones? ANy input would be great. Thanks

Call Giles at the shop and talk to him about it.
905-940-2266
On my brothers AAZ, I had a mild pump built for him and off boost there was no difference (as designed) but once the boost hit, you knew there was a turbo :twisted:
