Need help on a project. 
 
 
hi, 
I need the wisdom of somebody with far more knowledge than my own. 
I am looking for anybody that can offer words of wisdom or advice with enginering standards for doing a subaru motor conversion into a beetle. I need
TECH know-how. 
So if your in Sydney and up for a cuppa or coldie and a chat I would love to meet you. 
Cheers

Subi 1/2 cut 
 
 
Check out the buy/sell section, MR930 is selling all the stuff you need for that EJ20T conversion.....$2500, thats a great deal. I'd buy that
sucker but the twin cam will do for the moment.

I live in the area to this " twin  turb subi"  project and if its the one I'm thinking of, the Green Beetle that it came off looked
great.  .. I guess it just wasnt fast enough for Him.
