Hello again, how do you plan to address the brake biasing of your choice? Since I'm having IRS trouble presently, the only thing I can do is, watch people that dont have IRS troubles getting it done. At a earlier point of chosing brakes; I went with with the single piston fronts. I have somewhere buried in storage a book on the early single piston Porsche, I forget what year. The reason why I had the front calipers fit the rear was due to caliper sizing. I have read other members dealing with their large four piston calipers. But time has moved on, I see others having had success with larger four piston calipers. I am going to re-visit the brakes, At the time the pick-a-parts junk yard had 944, bugs engines still in the cars. I was simply removing keeping up with other members suggestions, and that was for two 1302's ond one 1303. I'm glad I just took suggested parts. Now the new pick-a-parts are very high. Please keep up the good work.

Hey effvee,
Where in Cali are you? That's part of my territory, and once Volkswagen allows regional travel again, I'll be down there (I'm near Portland, Oregon). My pedal cluster has dual master cylinders with a balance bar between them that allows me to vary the amount of pressure front to rear. IF for some reason that's not enough, I can always switch to different master cylinders to increase / decrease the bias. Kevin

Hello, I live in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. As stated my project is on hold. Question, the pedal assembly/ balance bar how much pedal area is taken up. I'm going to re-read your posts, don't want to ask the same question twice.

No worries. I'm sure others have the same questions.
I'm not sure the question, or the answer I should give. When you ask "How much pedal area is taken up.", do you mean how much physical space is taken up by the pedal cluster, or the adjuster's range of motion?

Hey, I'm in Rancho, 6 min from Ontario Airport. I believe I asked you questions on the pedal assembly; however its pricing, was out of my range. I'm good about accepting my limits. Why not go 6 cylinders turbos? Even now I see were if I did a convert from 1303 chopped and mixed with a bus back half. With that setup, a Subie 6 will fit. I don't race, but I want speed and assurance against possible failures. I almost found someone that sells how to convert drawings. Call me weird but I can see that setup with the Aero fenders. Differents is good. The Harley and VW were never supposed to turn out to what they have become.

More goodies for my motor from Marco at Mansispeed.com
I sent my intake in to get modified to accept higher flow injectors as this turbocharged engine will definitely need them. "A little something that I’ve done in the passed but never really shown anyone, I increase the runner diameter of the stock waterboxer by 4.5mm in diameter to allow more flow and hp more than 150hp, this is a large bottle neck, I have gone bigger than 4.5mm but low end torque suffers and its only done for big power turbo motors."

effvee,
I had considered the Scooby route as the EZ30's sound delicious. Challenge is, it's a heavy lump and I didn't want to go to a Subaru transmission to get the clearance needed for safe road use in my Ghia. As I work for Volkswagen, it's also sacrilege to swap something else in around HQ. I mentioned it once to one of my friends in PR, and he jumped from the 4th floor office we were in. I'm already a rebel with running a WBX in this thing. Last edited by DORIGTT; August 19th 2020 at 08:49.
