I bought this NOS tuning kit on the net. It's a VW engine tuning kit from the late 50's, and was for sale until 1962. It's a fairly simple kit, compared to a Judson Compressor, an Okrasa kit or a Mag compressor, but it did do something for your 30 hp engine. It not only improved your miles per gallon, it also improved the 0 to 100 km/h time with 3,5 seconds. Not bad for a kit that, in the fifties, costed 98,50 Deutsch Mark (compared to 249,50 Deutsch Mark for an Okrasa kit.)
I'm going to install it in my 1961 Karmann Ghia Cabrio, but was wondering if anyone has experience with this kit or has some more pictures of Karmann's with this kit installed?
On the samba there is also a pic of a Karmann Ghia with the kit installed.

Do you have any detail pictures? The links do not work. Like to see the center portion next to the carb and how connects on the cylinder head side.
thanks |
