Love that Turbo air intake ..👍
There are pics on his Facebook page but he has trouble uploading pics here from his pc. Plans are at this stage to have the car running and tech/license passes completed before Warwick. Just need the planets and stars to align and for everything else to play the game!!

X 2 please....
Ask westi, he's the man when it comes to that, he said that its just like the ones he makes for turbo Subaru's and they make more power over the stock intake so hopefully he's right!

Have you guys not seen Westi saying to make it the same as a good merged exhaust BUT opposite
Sooo 1 into 2.......then Into 4
It's Nice to get an update Troy
Yeah I know the theory behind it and I'm not saying its wrong as I've got my own opinion regarding both designs.
Westi knows his shit so I guess the combination of running boost over 14psi and the slamming of the valve shut creates enough turbulence to prevent wetting of the inlet manifold walls?
Should be a fun ride.........

Man that's a cool sounding Vw.
Quick fudge of the tune, now it idles and you can give it a few revs on pump fuel.
That should help you with any teething issues before the dyno.

Any updates Troy?
Engine is apart at dangerous' workshop. Cam will need replacing as do lifters. Both have severe enough pitting and corosion that they cannot be used. Everything else needs a thorough clean, some parts a bead blast to remove surface rust then put it all back together. Cam grind will be different from what Troy tells me.
