This belongs to a local guy, the dyno chart is a bit out of date as he is now rocking over 300 to the wheels. And yes, I believe you don't like the new beetle, but still... I can't write tonight...

VW FTW

i don't care if it had a last-of-the-v8-interceptors-blown-big-block sticking through the hood, there is just something incredibly feminine about the New Beetle.

beetle on aristos = fail

300HP on a 1.8T = really easy

I am not impressed

That's awesome! I've got nothing against the New Beetle. I'm sure I've had some rants on here about it before, but hey, it's the closest thing we can get to a Bug.

Plus, my dad's has been indestructable.

It's actually a 2.0 8v

Nice figures for an 8v.

Posted by Stewie Nice figures for an 8v.

Yeah, He's been running 14.5s at Bandimere (local dragstrip) and when he's done he expects to see the upper 12s.

Posted by Sinister Crayon It's actually a 2.0 8v

2.0 8v? so im guessing fully rebuilt with forged internals, cams, cam gear, some huge ass turbo of some kind, SDS and all that shite. nice

Ah, but then he's just another cobalt. It makes losing all the more interesting when your looking at the back of a bug.
