Aircooled VW South Africa

Can you say "lightened slightly"

You all know what damage a loose flywheel nut can do, check this baby andby the way this flywheel nut is torqued to something stupid like 300nm

Some blow through throttle bodies, 45mm will do the job for the power I want

Almost there

Dude, what are those two red pipes for? (last photo)

I have seen a flywheel like yours before... Its the SHIT!!! Man, that thing was SOOOOOOOOOOOO light, I just couldnt believe it! Can you say Swiss cheese

toys toys toys

Lovely.

What cylinder are those?

Dude, what are those two red pipes for? (last photo)

I used my bootlid pins as a silicone pipe holder Those are the pipes that will feed my throttle bodies with the needed boost.

That's a sweet Fasty there Zero!!Is that an OG colour?

Cool engine,and that flywheel.....

Zero,tell us more about the fasty!!

Thanks
I painted the firewall today and installed part of it. Hopefully by next weeked I can take her for the exhaust system.

The intercooler should also arrive next week, can't wait

Whell we decided to try build the exhaust ourselves. Thanks to by dad this is what we ended up with. Sorry about the crappy photos, but I only had my cell phone.
We decided to use the original J tubes from my old stinger system. The exhaust system features 40mm inside dia pipes and mandrell bends.

This is the top view from inside the car. We still need to clean off all the weling joints (I'm not the best welder). The collector still needs to be cut to length and turbo flange welded on

The exhaust can be installed with the engine in place, and there is still enough place for the Z bar. So no loss of handling in the back. The only joints in the exhaust system sits on the J pipes. Everything else is welded, so there is no exhaust leaks. Whell hopefully.

I must admit I'm really impressed with my dad's handy work here. It looks awesome. Here's to plenty horsepower
