I received my HotVW fix and flipped to the Readers Showcase on page 72 to find the ride shown is very similar to my own. Its a 77 SB convertible with some very minor and tasteful upgrades. I would really like to talk to the owner of this car, so my first question is does anyone on here know if David or Mylee Miletics are members on here?

Next question, One of the things I really liked about the Reader Ride mentioned above though is the Programmable fuel injection system installed from The Dub Shop. Does anyone have any experience with that system as compared to the stock FI? I was speaking with Mario at TDS and he said I could use much of the factory FI components but with a programmable ECU and a Crank Trigger ignition so I no longer need the distributor setup either. I'm sure this is going to start a war, but what are people's thoughts about this to partially upgrade the stock FI?

Dan, FI has come a LONG was since 1977....I'm not bashing Vw's system, but facts are facts. Technology has gotten wiser since 77
