i want to play around with e85 and after the 16g the car will be getting an hx 40. i only wanted to do the fuel system once. And with evo scan i can tune for them so why not?

 

Ive thought about going to 1000's until i go hx40 but well see how the 1600's behave once i get it running

Most guys that go past 1000cc go to a dual fuel injector set up, you never see anyone using singe big injectors anymore for daily type cars.

I dont know that i would consider this a "daily" car. It is street legal and ill drive it in the summer, but all creature comforts are gone. But that is some good info, I will def look into what it would take to go to a dual rail setup in the future.

ECS Tuning Water Pump. Wait....what? That's not a mod? Oh....stock then. :(

 

Whats the car going to be built or is used for?

Not sure. Just getting started on this one. Priority 1 is wheels since I have a bent rim currently. From there APR pc and DV. Then probably lower it a bit. We'll see what the future brings. Really just need to keep it running. It'll be the DD for awhile until I can afford something else.

 

What are your goals with the car?

Have fun. Not get in trouble.

400hp should be hard to come by on a 16g, i couldn't get mine any higher then 350whp. All in all nice build.

Im building a custom manifold and running the evo 9 16g. Its got a larger compressor cover to help with efficiency and the twin scroll 10.5 turbine housing. There are many evos on stock turbos putting down that and then some. I may not hit that number with this current setup, but i will hit it before i switch to another turbo.

69 VW Beetle

 

What mods?

 

It is a Full Restoration

 

Whats the car going to be built or is used for?

 

Cruising, and keeping the wife happy

 

What are your goals with the car?

 

Not to let her wreck it. There is always something to be done. I have been tinkering with this car for 7 years. When we decided to have kids it got put waaaay back on the shelf and has patiently. We've put maybe 200 mile on it in 7 years. Hopefully this summer we'll get to put more on it.

 

 

What type of car?

 

85 VW Scirocco

 

What mods?

 

Most of the parts for the engine are OEM from many other Legos er VW's. 2L bottom end out of a Mk3, Ported cylinder head form a Mk2 GTI, Intake manifold from a Fox, TB from a Porsche, Fuel management bits from Audi, Volvo, VW and Mercedes. 2.5" Exhaust, Header, O.D. Green Paint work coming soon, PC'd gold wheels. My refusal to bend to the masses on VWVortex won't let me buy Euro Bumpers, Stretch the tires, do a VR swap, shave the bay, or let the tow hooks drag the ground. Thaqt is what my Jetta is for.

 

Whats the car going to be built or is used for?

 

Auto-X and cruising around. Eventually it'll be boosted on E85, but not for a long while. If it puts down 140 to the wheels I'd be happy. At 1800 lb. you don't need a lot of power....

 

What are your goals with the car?

 

It's a West Coast car. I'd love to keep it forever, and it remain rust free.
