Looks awesome Wally!

What rear spoiler is that? Sorta looks like Dr Holzapel(sp?) one on that race bug.

[Wally]

Yeah, its a one-off Gerrelt made me, but it took so much time, that I'am not sure if he wants to make another anytime soon...

Any thoughts on what the front fender slots and the "wing" did for you? I'm really interested in the front fender slot feedback, not sure I could pull of the rear window wing but I'd love to know how it works.

Sorry Jason, I can't tell what effect the fender slots in itself have or had. Neither with the roof extension as I only drove 10 miles or so with it when the current 1192cc type 1 compound turbo engine seized...

I am going to build another turbo type 4 for next year as with my long 1st gear, that small an engine is no fun driving on the street.

Yup, you're right!

If anybody wants details on how I made it, just say so.

I'd love to get details on the roof spoiler and the rain gutter panels you made.

At your service: Link to germanlook thread

And here I describe how I created the A pillar deflectors: Reducing Windnoise / Raingutter Fillers page

[Wally]

Ok, so I disposed of almost all of the type 1 stuff and started cleaning a type 4 case again

The idea is to use my 74mm Oettinger crank coupled to a moderate bore of 98mm to give 2230cc or almost as 'big' or small as the old motor was.
This time with "someones" billet type 4 heads with T1 exhaust ports (if all plans and promises are met) for improved flow and strength.





Almost everything on the engine will be a little stronger or better in some way, so I'am curieus what the outcome will be!

How does the 1.2T perform?

The idea with the small turbo feeding the big turbo worked, as the boost rose super gradually when the big turbo came on after the small one reached wastegate boost, but I seized the engine right afterwards...
So I don't have any more impressions then that one time dual spool-up of both turbos.
