Re: Depraved motor musings
This one might not be too depraved, but it could be with a little imagination.
I saw an ad for an 80q that had a VR6 motor in it (in England, I believe).
OK, so let's say it gets balanced, ported, extrude-honed, etc., and is
putting out about 200bhp -- not outside the realm of reason. A nice, tiny,
German 6 cyl in a quattro that has a lot of torque that comes on low in the
range.
Psychotic extreme:
eip TUNING turbo system on said motor -- 375-380 bhp! On pump gas!
I'd think about doing it to my GTI, but the idea of trying to get that to
the ground in a front driver makes me laugh. Oh, yeah, and I don't have
the $6K for the kit.
Bet you're thinking, "Hmm, wonder if that VW in the bone yard's a VR6..."
Have fun. It's here : http://www.eiptuning.com/turbovr6.html
