Hey Hugo,
I first saw your car on the rorty site. I wish I had the time and money to build a mid-engine monster like yours but i suppose that my 1600ACVW motor will have to do for now :) Keep up the good work man and all of the best and good luck for the rest of the build. Cheers |
amazing work!!!

Very nicely done!! Fantastic!!!! A good friend of mine also has a 3.6L Audi V8 twin turbo and tiptronic Porsche Transmission in his bug. http://www.youtube.com/user/loco8576

Nice to see you back on it! Keep going!

Yes,he´s a very good friend of mine.The car handles very well.He didn´t build it as a strict drag racer,it can corner just as good as most sports cars.Right now he´s pushing around 600-650hp and hasn´t reached full boost yet.The twin turbos spool up to about 1.2-1.4 bar and he´s finally able to get 0,8-1,0 bar without pulverising the transmission.He estimates it will do about 700-750hp.The tiptronic seems to hold up well even though it was a nightmare to programm.He has done everything himself except the engine and mapping.He´s not an engine buff,but he is an expert in fabricating.It looks like a 1200 beetle,but it´s actually a 1302 - the body has been modified to look like a 1200.The wheelbase is still 1302.It is brutal and incredibly stable.

No I don´t have any pictures that are up to date,you can actually see more in the videos on you tube than what I have,sorry. There will be a feature of this car next month in the German VW Scene magazine.He will also be in Hannover,Germany at the Maikäfertreffen on May 1st - look for the Bug-Talk Banner the car will be parked right next to it on display.
Here´s another couple of shots: http://www.volksrodderz.de/2010/04/1...cke-hat-n-drin http://www.volksrodderz.de/2010/01/3...ns-v8-bi-turbo |

I like Hugo´s rear suspension arrangement better than El Loco´s,actually. What is your target weight? El Loco´s bug weighs just under 1100kg with a full tank of gas.The fenders are steel also.
