That's pretty hot man...would you mind sharing the engine/trans specs with me. In the process of saving for a VW now. Sold my '69 about 9 years ago and now I want another. Thanks!

Nice ride dude! How much HP is it pushing at the time of this video? What would you estimate 1/4 mile time?

[adriianv8]

@fatsubsonic 110 octane!

es una hermosura

[oldvw]

hmm I might have started in second gear, as I would cruise at 40mph 3500 rpm in 3rd gear. Honestly this was so long ago I have no idea.

[fatsubsonic]

Whats the trick to get 15-17lb boost on 91 Octane without detonation? Especially with blow through!?

[germanvw]

Is this kit still in production? Thanks

Sweet, I hope to be getting a 70 bug this weekend, I'd like to put a turbo on it too, Where did you get yours and about how much was it!

Great video, 5 stars!
