boost and that is AJ's gimmick. My buddy Rip has a street rail with a 2332 and AJ's turbo kit on it, 500hp deal but he doesn't like the drivability at all.

I know AJ, his shop is a mile down the street from my house. Like any business man, he's in business to make money. People want turbos and big carbs, so that's what he sells them. If people were beating his door down for turbo/EFI kits I'm sure he would gladly provide them...

Your right Brian, it's not worth his time to learn something new when most VW owners are super ignorant and think carbs work good enough. Supply and demand, unfortunately he doesn't have the drive to evolve his offerings.

Nick, you better get used to carbs on VWs! I'm sure they will used on a huge majority of VWs during our generation.

Or maybe you should have a workshop for the rest of us ignorant people (with well tuned carbed motors) on how to build and tune FI systems? :ugeek: :redguy:

I love it when narrow minded people bash others for not being as "smart" as they are.

BTW I like the car.

EFI workshop sounds fun but I think you would be the only one interested.

Ryan- I love you too :redguy:
