    VW, J Series, or Ecotec

    Fuel pressure is solid, fuel system is clean as crystal, it definitely has old Bosch style low impedance injectors (60lb/hr) and a locked CB Magnaspark distributor. By the time I spend the money on the ignition system, new ECU, and injectors I feel like I could just put that money towards an...

    VW, J Series, or Ecotec

    I very much appreciate the input! I've done some stuff with LS swaps (carbureted SBC to LS) so I don't think the wiring/ecu part should be a big deal, fabrication is also not an issue as whatever I'm not proficient at my dad has built many rails over the years! His input on the whole thing is to...

    And I understand that the ECU has no mechanical control over the creation of boost. My main thought as to why it's having issues is it's pig rich (11.X AFR) at WOT and I don't want to keep messing with trying to tune it in as it seems like a silly system. I assume it's super lazy on building...

    What classifies as a "built" transmission to you? I'll be running worn STU Blaster 33's for a while so I shouldn't be getting too much bite. For pulling up to the bottom of a hill and launching off to climb them I'll use my other buggies, I'm intending this one to be more so for putting the wife...

    Checking to see if anyone has a used adapter plate and flywheel sitting around from an old project or anything that they'd want to part with for my upcoming engine swap.

    My tunnel buggy. Also, I'm located in Kansas and 99% of my riding will be done at Little Sahara Oklahoma, not Glamis or St Anthony's. Best I can tell is our riding still has more straight line hill climbs and driving through partially wooded trails as opposed to long, bowling motions that it...

    VW, J Series, or Ecotec

    I have what I assume is a built 002, the gears seem very close ratio and with how it seems the original builder spent money on the car I'd be surprised if it was stock. Planning on keeping it but I also have multiple spare 002 and 091 amongst the family I can get easily. Going off the tape I...

    VW, J Series, or Ecotec

    Hello all, I have recently acquired what I believe to be an old Sand Limo beam car that is a brand new (from the pistons in) turbo 2276 VW that I built. It has an old CB Performance 4 dial fuel injection setup and a locked distributor. It builds boost really slow and doesn't quite seem to have...
