Yeah, screwing it in all the way didnt have any effect. The timing is perfect and the car runs beautifully except for the stalling when letting off the throttle.
Gets your attention when slowing for a light, the engine dies and the power brakes disappear!
We've had the car for 3.5 years, built and installed the engine last year. Took a while to debug vacuum leaks but it's really good now.
Two weeks ago we installed a Stayfast cloth top from ConvertibleTopGuys.com. Wasnt as bad as I expected. We took both Sat and Sun but we took a lot of breaks to watch the Brickyard and it was 105 out so breaks were necessary. It turned out really nice. I've always liked cloth tops a lot more than vinyl.
We used the Pineapple templates for porting, stock intake/turbo/intercooler, RP downpipe, Bonez cat and Corksport exhaust. Controlling it with a RTek1.8 with 720/1000 injectors and an SAFC (hopefully interim solution until RTek gets the 2.0 out for S5s) to control the AFR which we monitor with a Zeitronix. Stock boost and it's plenty fast but there is headroom.
