we have dyno's to tell us what works and what doesnt. and for the most part all engines concept of making HP/TQ is the same general theory.
no replacement for displacement, unless you have a HUGE FUCKING TURBO. lol.
more air, more fuel, more flow = more power/tq
but TUNING IS KEY. narrows it down for the most part.
You know I thought that way too. But I have classes like Baja/F1 where we build scale race cars and compete against other schools. I mean how can you beat that? I get to build cars for school. There is some shit that I just dont want to learn or feel the need to. But what do I know I am not the teacher.
Well what if you take the 1.8 and make it into the 2.1(more displacement) then put the bigger turbo?(gt3078r, its in the works. Lets see if student loans will fund it lol.)
All I need to do is learn the tuning aspect, then I feel I will have a very good grasp on the VW. I have the necessary tools, just not the know how yet.
