The interesting Issue not clearly noted already....
A Passat ECU is located on the driver side firewall/shocktower basket thingy... well the porsche harness is on the passenger floor.. behind some ****.. but in the cab... hmm thats a long way to go.. or is it.
I redirected whatever wiring needed to be moved and well instead of having all the wiring pretty much under the hood well i have 40% of it inside the passenger foot welll..
Now the problem being.. all the colored connectors for VW harness arent very long.. especially to get from the passenger floor all the way up to the cluster.. so i found in all my wiring left overs color matching wires and basically extended everything.
Yes this meant, finding exactly which cluster wires, gas pedal, brake pedal, OBD2 plug wires etc etc i needed and well mattered.
Long days past and well bam i had essentially made a harness to drop into the 944 ! YAY!
So wiring was doable.. How about fuel..
Well for those who dont know(likely most..) the 944 has a 75L plastic fuel tank.... DING DING DING plastic... another good thing about this car having sat for about 15 years a super dry gas tank.. so a little cleaner here and there and bam a fresh clean tank waiting for some new diesel... only issue... diesel isnt very high pressure hmmm
A 944 fuel pump is actually external, though obviously flows way more than needed. so after lots of calculating and research i sourced a nice nifty Solid State inline Diesel pump, i think it primes to 11psi, and stays about 9psi which is more than enough for supply and to keep fuel cooling down ! Tada fuel system pretty much good
Thats another good note Yay
