thank you for replying.
it is good to get feedback like yours, and it might be telling of why this particular thread went dead silent. perhaps FI came to France as well =? Smile

so yes, fuel injection is the way to go. I had collected all the parts but a skinny wallet forced me to sell it all off, so now i am back to square one .

What is the baseline price on a fuel injection setup for turbo =? I guess one could run a single injector and throttlebody ? anyways, i guess that is something to discuss in another thread.

I'm building a stock single port right now, and considering going this route and then selling it. Is there a market for 140HP turbo engine for 3K or so?

for the heck of it i will post here again. it is sort of nostalgic coming here. I'm still a fan of doing stuff on the cheap. nowadays so many in the vw community is spending a ton of money to make their car go fast, which is nice if u got money to burn .

Talk is just that.....talk. A person has to Walk the Talk in order to be believed. No follow up means a FAILURE happened.

EDIT: A Turbo with a single throat carb is NOT new.

Back in the late 1970's had a 1600cc with a single throat Carb to a Turbo. Believe it was a Zenith...still have it in my back room in a box with the exhaust etc.....old technology as I've a Weber DCOE 40 to a Rajay B25 1776cc today and this is somewhat old technology also....go figure.

Really nice.
Do you plan to release some drawings or tutorial ?

Turbo is not behind the engine. It's all tucked in between the crank pulley and the rear body panel.
Car sounds like original.
Dump valve is progressive to avoid the typical "tchii" at deceleration. So when you pass by five-0, there's nothing tale telling. Plus it allows engine to run smoother and more linearly. This makes the car very drivable on ice and snow.

You could even knee down to look under the car, as we're making fake original looking exhaust. We do that even though the turbo is already hidden underneath by the muffler.
On the other hand, I've never seen any officer crawling under a car to check anything.

You should keep in mind that if there's no regular technical check up test in the US, over here in Europe, we have to have the car checked by the automotive dept every two years. Bring a beetle that does not look original to this test and you're sure to fail.

We also realize that the difficulty of making it all invisible is not of everyone's capability, which was a good challenge. Nothing on the car body has been cut. It's all tucked in, and everything is reachable and practical. It's not like those kits you see for sand rails or dune buggies where you almost need to undo everything to change the fan belt.

That stealth 2110cc turbo engine is the baddest engine I've ever seen in my life. Why would you want a stock looking turbo? So you can hustle unsuspecting victims in a street race!! (And say "Officer, there's NO Way I was going that fast!)
