In the Dec. 2005 issue of Hot VW's , there is a spread on an orange KG vert that is running a Subaru WRX engine . It does't get into the conversion too much , but the install is very clean . I am in the state of planning my next beetle , and originally I was going to install a big horsepower type IV , but after seeing this car , and seeing the amount of power available from a stock Subaru engine , I think I am going to go this route instead . I was already planning on having a custom tube chassis floorpan constructed , so this will help a lot in the install . BTW , in the same issue , if anybody knows what the name of the rims on the Doug Hartman chopped 74 on page 69 , please let me know . They look very similar to Torque Thrusts , but slightly different . Axl .

Scooby - keep us up to date . I , for one , want to see whats going into one of these conversions . I want to know whats in store for me when I finally get to do this (don't forget , I am doing a custom frame , for strength and ease of the modifications I have planned)
