Thanx guys!

There's still quite alot of work to be done (weld the intercooler to become a double chargecooler with a front mounted radiator, machine the flywheel to accept the dual disc clutch, apply a scavengerpump for the turbo (oil outlet), install the complete interior properly, modify the dash to accept a few Porsche gauges, install the waterinjection, etc.....)
Well, enough to be done this year, but I hope to be finished as soon as all the big events start.....

A wonderfull aircooled 2005 to everybody,

Grt. Robin

Yeah, the engine is ready, but the dyno-guy still is not...

I'll keep you posted.

So...what kind of performance figures do you have for us?

Have you had it dyno'd to give torque and horsepower figures.

It hasn't been dynoed yet due to clutch failure: The clutch-combo I'm using is rated to 340Nm, but it starts slipping as soon as you floor it a couple of times...
The new dual-disc combo should be able to withstand 540Nm: as soon as it has been installed (together with the finished chargecooler), it will be finetuned on a dyno....
As soon as it has been dynoed, I'll post the results...

Grtz. Robin
