I mainly want this car to be a good reliable (and I know efi will only help that) car for daily driving, but with the turbo, for a little fun factor. I just can't see myself trying to merge in traffic with only 40hp.
$1500. AN EXAMPLE-- I'm using:

-SDS Engine management- FULL ADJUSTABILITY (NO laptop- simply use the hand-held controller) with ignition control and DIS. Its worth it just for the adjustability.

-Single Mustang 50mm. (approx. 450 cfm.) Throttle body- from junkyard- single is much easier to set up than duals and it hasn't been proven that either produces more/less HP. Plus more room in engine compartment for plumbing.

-making my own intake manifold

-balanced and blueprinted injectors

-CB fuel rails

-Golf fuel pump and surge tank

AGAIN FOR EXAMPLE:

All of this costs just as much as a CB kit.
Check it out..... www.sdsefi.com
If anyone's interested in any of these SDS systems alone, feel free to e-mail me for a better price.

Turbos are definitely cool. I'd 'charge my food processor if I could. I'm also building a 2.0 Turbo for my Rabbit.
:silly:
