Power gains from 3.0

[MattF]

Ah the 3, 1mm washers or something?

That's the one.

Sounds like an idea...

3.0 turbo is down the bottom. Ally pipe might be better than rubber hose?

I can't believe this ain't a done thing for 3rd Gens - as they have the all powerful engine (an all).

Anyway - Apache - I'll size it all and you buy it and we'll fit it - all before the Run to the Hills - easy

That's the one.

Any links to drawings Matt?

Forgot to add the air intake itself. Also worthwhile fitting a pyro if you're going down the engine mod route, just so you can keep a proper eye on things.

I'll have a search, (if Vince don't beat me to it).

I'll have to get a decent quality boost gauge too... Maplin dont sell the piezo pressure transducers anymore do they?

Probably just dreaming, though Andy's offer of help to fit an intercooler after doing such a bang-up job himself is nice! It's just a matter of time until I accept that one I think!

I'm assuming thats just a variable hole?

Once one has decided on the boost one needs, it's a simple matter to drill the correct size hole and job done.

If you wanted a faster, more powerful Surf, you should have bought……..

Dont they all have towbars as standard for the trailer with the extra fuel tanks to provide more than 100 mile range?

Didn't know they ever did.
