    Beautiful engine. I love the fan. I have really never been a volkswagon guy, however seeing some of the custom builds has really changed my mind. I wonder what a 300hp Volkswagen wagon drives like. Wow.

    Am I the only one hearing that pinging on those full throttle pulls??? It’s easy to hear when the camera was in the back you might not be able to hear it in the front seat. I’d do some logging and check your knock sensor trace (if you have one). Obviously knocking under boost is not good.
    Congrats on the ride it looks awesome!

    I had a 200-ish HP '71 Corolla many years ago. People may not be impressed with that but A) The car only weighed about 1700 pounds and B) That was naturally aspirated! Biggest downside was I had the original rear wheel gearing and 4 speed tranny, so running 55mph on the highway was an adventure in high revs... I planned on upgrading to the available 5 speed but I sold the car because my mom was afraid I was going to kill myself in it.

    The reason the case cracked with that fitting tightened all the way down, is that NPT threads are tapered, so as you thread it further in it gets wider and wider, so you went too far, and probably didn't crack until everything expanded when the engine was running.

      Keep up the good work, some of us wish we were doing what you're doing with yours.

    Holy moly you are the man. What a build sounds and goes amazing. I wouldn't hammer it too much though 'til it's tuned up, as tempting as it is. I Don't want to be a kill joy, I couldn't tell with the video sound, but was the higher rev chatter the blow off or detonation? I have a supercharged beetle draw thru and when jetting the mains down smaller I got the same sound and it was detonation. I was lucky and noticed in time. Cheers C.

  • @Mikefngarage
    @Mikefngarage 2 года назад +1

    dont you need a different tune for the e85 or do your fuel trim numbers range that far. will need a lot more fuel. I am considering converting to e85 on mine. better cooling and cheaper. less saudi oil too. but you do use much more of it.

    • @JWClassicVW
