my bug.. whatever style you want to call it.. will always run a type1 based motor.. ive got too much cash/time/blood/sweat invested in type1 tuning gear to warrant a swap to type4. currently i have a 1600 motor with twin carbs and a header.. doesnt sound much, but its taken me 6 years to get the motor where it is now. the swap to type4 would take me a decade!! LOL! future plans include 1.4:1 rockers and headwork in the short term and a stroker crank (forged c/w type1 or WBX) and 90.5's in the long term... the carbs and exhaust can cope with any upgrades i make.. i purposely fitted parts that are either slightly too big now, or at least correct now but upgradeable..
