Fuck me, thats the only new beetle i like, but i think the turbo is a tad small Thanks for the link Dave, now if only i won the lotto the other day, i'd build one for you Dave.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

Dave what a lovely piece of engineering...however the turbo outlet to the inlet cross manifold is 90 degrees a big no no for air flow !!!Maybe he has
that much happening it doesn't matter...not like us poor naturally aspirated competitors who have to grasp at every straw !!!

Hi Ross, yes I noticed that tight 90 degree joint where the throttle butterfly is.
When they guys all ran draw through carbs with their turbo applications,
a direct 90 degree helped stir upsome of the raw fuel that would pool in the manifold,
but with EFI and nozzles down low,
they have probably done that because of the limited space available.
Perhaps at a later time it will be easier to just swivel the butterly 180 degrees,
and plumb in an intercooler.
But yes you are correct, there will be no lack of power despite the design being less than optimum.
