Last Saturday a dyno day was organized for a few VW cars in prep for this years Warwick Weekender Drag Racing Meet.
Keith and myself went along to tune Keiths new motor in his Beetle. He has made a few changes from last year and was keen to see his results. After two dyno pulls and a quick timing and jet change the motor made 185 rwhp.
You will notice this is with the fan belt on, real hp!.
Congrats Keith on this mighty effort.
Geez Rod was game standing there considering I put it together. I notice he leans back out of the flying debris flightpath.
If i could get some photo`s to attach i would show the 4 new CMS/Erco rims i had made for Warwick. Pity the effin courier driver dropped them all onto the M5 freeway and then the motorists behind ran over them. They would`ve looked good too.
what a mad little streeter.congrates on the power mate.
did you change the combo off the engine or is it the same.
man you would have some fun with that on the weekends.i am so jealous.
Same 2332cc, changed the Web 86c to a Pauter S3E8 cam which is 302 adv and 272 at 050". Lift is alittle less than the web though at .600". When back down to 42mm vents from 44mm and up comp to 11-1.
Picked up tons of mid range, a little top end and still runs around with similar head temps but i wouldn`t like to run it on a hot day. Ended up at 27/28* timing, made most power there. Old combo was 30*. This is on BP 98.

Ah well, looks like cheese cutters this year.
