Yes the brace is still there. I have to remove it to get the mani off it appears, along with other fun stuff... lol

Yeah I don't have a spare oven, powdercoating gun, sandblaster, or the space for it all. Lol. It's definitely something I would want to do though.

I put the lower trim under the steering wheel back in, as well as the dash cluster. I also put the latch back on the dash so the glove box will stay closed. As I was cleaning up, I realized I never screwed that speedo/tach into the dash...

I don't know if I have ever screwed mine back in.....LOL!!

I take it in/out so much it's just easier to leave it un-screwed.

I know I will need to pull it one more time. I have been testing the Tach circuit in the car.

"-" from dash to "-" to battery (continuity)
"+" from dash to "+" to plug behind dash behind passenger air vent (continuity)

So now I get to tear into the pre & post turbo pluming access the PTO and test "+" to "Tacho" of the PTU. I am so praying it is a faulty PTU. The instrument cluster tested fine in another car.

mine cracked even with the brace on. I welded it about 40k ago and it is still looking good. Hopefully is a one time type of repair...

more like what I did last night. I found out I can remove the front sway bar easily without removing either of the control arms, just came right out.

Started a 60K timing belt maintenance on my 93 TT, pulled the tranny so once the 60k is done I can swap in a rebuilt 25 spline. I also re-organized all the parts on the shelf for my 94 in anticipation of it coming back from paint
