RE: 1.8T in Ur-q

[Todd Phenneger <phen9461@uidaho.edu>]

Boy,
    I had toyed with this idea too.  But for a 4kq track car.  Maybe
After the V8 conversion will I try this. :-)  ANd that comes after the
MC and 20vt conversions.  Heh, Heh.  I let out a maniac like laugh.
    I see one big advantage of the 1.8t conversion.    WEIGHT!   The
1.8t 4-cyl weighs a lot less than the 3B,MC motors.  And it should allow
a little more room in front of the motor for say, OH..... a MASSIVE
INTERCOOLER???  WIthout having to ditch half the front end of your car
and use your IC for either a Grille   or   a   SKid Plate as it seems
Alex Nekus's massive unit would do on a bumpy road.
    Anyhnow, I think it would be a Sweet conversion but I sure am not
going to try it any time soon. :-)
    Good luck to anyone who does though.
L8R
