Svend,
I know you're kidding. ;)

But you are right. Perhaps if we had the nifty TDI versions as they have
in the EU, we wouldn't need or have the desire to chip.

But as it is, with the bilge water we have for fuel, we are stuck with
the anemic versions we have.

I am a staunch believer in hillbilly tuning. I do so on my VW p/u. This
thing would have run circles around my former Rabbits. No smoke either!
My wife drives it work. She gets a consistent 50mpg(US). She doesn't
drive easy either. That is a real testament to the process.

Hey, instead or filing out the holes, just slip the belt by a tooth.
