adaptorman Posted September 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 That's the best VW conversion I've seen since we put a Porsche flat six in an early Kombi some years ago - and yours would have been much more challenging!The creative side of your brain is definitely working!Well done!lol nice one ive done other its a 1961 vw splitscreen pickup(my daily) i fitted a 3.0sc porshce lump 200bhp sounded nice but wasnt over fast ,so ripped it out and fitted a 3.0 v6 quad cam 2days from scratch it was in and runing that kicks out 220bhp at least and leaves t5 volvos and porshce 911 on the quarter mile lol (looks rough called rat look in the world lol cheersCreative for sure...keep us posted!thanks will do :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the equivalent to 450 bhp in a 1000 kg car, ie 450 bhp per tonne.If you have 300 bhp in a 500 kg car, that's equivalent to 600 bhp in a 1000 kg car, ie 600 bhp per tonne.On a good turbo and engine, the RICA 304 will produce approx 300 bhp. No joke.(prity amazeing if he hes right)power to weight ratio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
