I haven't seen any comments about the build quality... The only "so called negatives" have related to whether or not it is legally legal or not
Anyway... here it is off the line.
Pretty right Matt. I'm extremely impressed with what Wayne regularly does.
A bit of tunnel vision or selective reading.
There's no tunnel vision, no selective reading. I just see a lot of negative amongst the genuine enquiries. Not necessarily against build quality, although its there, but I never mentioned the words myself.
Many comments, 1 or 2 pages?, from amatuer lawyers about legality of registration and BOV's.
Taunts about gene berg trophy from more than one person.
The side plate wayne used, wont hold up.
The welded diff, wont hold up.
Comments about putting cold water in the intercooler is cheating. Laughable. No more cheating than fitting the turbo.
JakJones post about the shift rod bush bracket. Derogatory.
Matts comments re ports and iswinkels comments about the traction bar and intercooler. conceded these may be interpretations. I just dont think you should tell someone they need something, or how to do something they have already done before. I mean friggin hell. Who would have used stock ports on this. Someone with a lot of speedway and hillclimbing behind him, plus at least 20 years of vw service probably would have an inkling that a standard port wont flow too well. I think some people just like to see their name up in lights saying look at me, I know about this. But yes, I admit I may have selective reading in those posts.
Wayne said it would be "fully engineered and street regeristed" Looks like it is to me. Car looks great and does 11's.
