Damn I would have loved to bring my massIVe powered 914 up to the show. But with no job it was a no go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Maybe next time. Paul, It would have been great to have it on the dyno!! I remember that engine so well and sold it to you before I owned the chassis dyno... I'd like some data from it! It was a great show.. This is certainly going to be an annual event that our owners and believers can plan on for years to come! |

That will be something for me to look forward to next time. Paul |

Very cool, I'm a sucker for a double cab...not to mention one that hauls butt in addition to cargo.

The Double Cab is a true beast.. It drives so damn good with the 923 5 speed transaxle. The behavior of the 2.7 liter engine is what I'd expect based on it's combination.
It has more left in it.. Its not tuned at all in the video. The 356 engine is a 2.4, it made 224HP @ 9:1 CR on pump gas.. True Outlaws begin at 200HP! |

Jake,
That was a great event. It was great to meet so many people. Lots of 914 owners without their cars! I am looking forward to the next one, and hopefully I'll bring the right car next time. You weren't kidding about the roads in your area. I was kicking myself for having the truck. Mark |

Did you do one of those destructive engine runs on the dyno until the engine blew up? That would be an interesting video to see, though ,,,,very sad I think

Mine has about 100hp from a 1720 and it feels good for street driving, I can't imagine one with more than 2x the power. Good stuff...and a cheaper route than a Polo motor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Not cheap enough for me to afford, but still (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

It was not healthy enough for street use at all and was worn out. I loved holding the Nitrous button down and inducing death! |

Hate we couldn't make it. I had the entire gang all fired up about it and then one after the other fell out.
Looks like a good time. There was a VW gathering at AMS so we saw plenty of cool VW's all weekend down here. |

Here is an awesome video produced by a member of the local VW Club.. Bob did a great job illustrating the events of the show, our property and the RAT Compound!
