I'm going to get s youtube vid of this tomorrow. I've taken apart stuff 3 times now. Intake and all sensors and so on. My intake is leaking an excesive amount of air from inside the throttle body. Huge hissing sound.

My k8-ZE is pre detonating at random times. Sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. I'm so stuck and i'm so pissed cause i need a car running ASAP.

Please help guys. The vid i will post wil dumbfound you.

When i start the car it revs to 4000rpm right away, wont stay running unles the VAF is unplugged..... lol what the heck is going on!!

Are you still using the stock air box?( They are prone to ripping in the ribbed section)

Check the post date before you reply, this ones from September of last year. Problem is very likely solved by now (and IIRC there was another big thread on it)
