I need the MPI for methanol. The HPFP was a mistake. I already got it when I realized I need the low pressure pump. Ordered the low pressure pump also. As long as I had both, I installed both.

What did you do to your mk7 today?

Too bad you can't do this in Street Touring classes for AutoX

Mk8 PCV smoked the first session early on, but cleared up as the laps clicked off. Car was low on power as you’d expect.
So I set hot tire pressure, topped off oil, checked lugs and went out for our second run…smoke, EPC, sounded like a Subaru so I limped it back to the pits.
Obd11 wasn’t worth a shit, so I topped off oil and loaded it up. Spectated for a bit and just went come.
The car (chassis wise) felt great, perfect 70*F day and the Continental Force Extreme checked all the boxes; easy to drive, predictable at the limit, no roll over or uneasy feeling at all and didn’t get greasy (although I was low on power).

I know every large line is a full degree and the smaller are 15mins so you should be close to 3degree

Subaru noises are hide cylinder
Happened to me a few times with bad gas at the track. ECU disabled cylinders due to misfires/knock. Could barely limp to the pits.

Bingo. I cleared faults and tried to look at live data, but OBD11 told me to kick rocks.
I’m assuming the plugs are oil soaked from gulping so much oil, but I also had just dumped in 3.5 or so gallons of 93 from QT (filled two 5G cans on the way to keep it topped off).
It sounded like a Subaru with a dead coil pack a year or so ago too.

Good to know about the lines…on my R32 they’re maxed out and I’m almost at 3 degrees
That rule is silly AF. Like, it makes sense that if you allow any damper, there's no point in restricting how they're adjusted, since if you're resourceful enough, you can just have a non-adjustable damper valved to match whatever your preferred damping curve is. Since camber plates are basically open, you're not getting any additional camber by not being allowed to clearance the opening.
Sounds like you had some oil hanging around. I'm curious what your spark plugs look like. What turbo/boost were you running?

You'll need a depin tool, but you can buy replacement connectors. Quick glance it looks like you'll need a dual prong one.
