I really don't want to put the teener away until the snow falls. But this morning had me wondering about installing the Eberspacher heater - they made a version for the type 4 motor and Ark Mirvis from the Samba has them available. Anybody ever do this? In case you are wondering, I have no heat, Evo Headers without any heater box - in my humble experience the heat from the heat exchangers was minimal at best. Ideas??

Hey Jeff: It was in the 20s in MA this morning. You guys in CA have no idea what real cold is. My neighbor was scraping the ice off his windshield when I pulled out of the garage. Yeah, the pursuit of HP lead to the decision to go with headers, although Chris does offer his own version of a heater box. Want a laugh, I have heating clothing for my Beemer - Gerbings heated vest and gloves and an adapter to plug them into the cig lighter. Toasty for me, the passenger will freeze - but to hell with them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)
