Ok..
My baja is a 69 model with a series 5 13b turbo rotary conversion. The motor is a rebuilt import engine with standard turbo running an EMS computer and 12psi of boost.
Intercooler is mounted on top of the engine with an air scoop to pull in cold air.
I am running a standard 1800 kombi box with a mini spool through a kennedy 2100lb pressure plate and standard german clutch plate.
I've made custom longer & wider rear trailing arms so I could run standard Kombi CVs and drive shafts. Also fabricated rollcage that takes twin longer travel heavy duty offroad shocks. (extending through wheel arches mounts inside on cage) and I've installed a hydraulic type handbrake setup.
Had dyno'd at 200rwhp but have made a few mods since. Should now have around 230 at the wheels.
More mods in the works. Will get some photos up soon..

Rotorbug, we had a brief look in the hotel carpark, very nice! Although I don't have a clue about most of the spec stuff you just stated, congratulations for a great set of wheels, you restored my daughters faith in the fact that there is no end to what you can do with a bug....!
