not a biggie! Just thought I'd ask! Thanks for being honest!

 

Cool. Nice work. That mount bolts up in place of the bone looking one?

 

Yes, mount bolts into stock location.

 

This is looking very interesting! Sub'd

 

Any updates? Really looking forward to the finished product!

 

Been too busy with other projects the last week.
The new hybrid oilpan and Turbo showed up this week.


The engine adapter and motor mounts are finished, just waiting for the time to get the Colt stage 2 cam installed in the engine before dropping it into place.



I hope to get the lower parts of the doors sprayed with Raptor this weekend if it does not rain but this is BC, it always rains.

 

Got the Raptor sprayed and Jeep dragged back into the shop just before the rain on the weekend.



Then folded the rear fender lip back before the flares go on.
I sealed up the gap with undercoat so no moisture can get in.



Front fenders trimed as well.


Engine is finally ready to drop in.
Adapter worked out well as did the crank hub.

 

Looking good. I am jealous

 

I love Cherokees & VW diesels.
Can't wait to see how this turns out.

 

Engine is finally in for good, maybe.
Intake is back from powder coating and some shiny bits showed up with the intercooler.
We sold a few trucks this week so my projects will get booted out of the shop till the trucks are built so it may be awhile before I have updates.



I'll slowly be working on the wiring harness for the next few weeks, not very interesting pictures.

 

Looking good man, real good! Funny how the inlet to the turbine compressor looks like it couldn't even suck enough air to move a Briggs & Stratton lol

If you wanted to do harness pics you'd have at least one interested audience here!

You're getting the immobilizer nuked in the VW PCM and hooking it up to the CCD right? Or have I just had a little much for drinky

 

Yup, Malone stage 4 tune, EGR delete and immobilizer delete along with anything else I can delete.
I ordered a bunch of stainless bends and turbo flanges from these guys http://www.mandrel-bends.com/catalog/
Might get a start on the exhaust this weekend.
I'll see what I can do about harness info and pic's.

 

Giggity. No holds barred, eh? That's like $1000 in programming isn't it?

I really like the extended idle option. I don't know if the VNT-17 is prone to the same issues as the VNT-15 but it'd be nice to curb oil leakage in addition to the obvious warmup. But I'm not sure warmup is exactly a priority for you on Vancouver Island lol

 

$399 for the tune which includes the deletes and then $75 for the immobilizer delete so $475 complete

 

Not bad. EGR suppression too I guess?
