Oregon Joe please stand up
Go to the STF and look at the Type 5 Oxyboxer section
What it is is the Wasserboxer motor (1.9 or 2.1 L motors) with aircooled P&C's machined in.
WHY?
well it has better crank set up and a few other things - sort of best of Type 4 and Type 1 in the one motor.
Oregon Joe is the Jake Raby of the Type "5" world

Hi
I believe Hellbug were the 1st people to do one, I remember doing a bit of bench racing with Geoff from Hellbug in about 1998 or 99 with few other VW people and I think I suggested it and then Geoff did it soon after.
There was an article in Australian VW Power about it, there is even a link on the Club VeeDub sitehttp://www.clubvw.org.au/oxy.htm

Hi
I meant 88 or 89, I fitted my WBX to my car for the 1st VW Nationals in 1988 and it was not long after this that we were talking about it. The sepos actually caught on when I posted the link in my post above this one on the Shoptalkforums.

The only reason i said Oregon Joe is cause he is on a mission pushing this to the max.
Any of you guys talked to him?
