How thew hell else are you going to get any respectable power out of an air cooled VW engine. One of the bajas had a motor just over 2 liters with a turbo, he had between $5-7K invested and was still only putting 163hp to the wheels. Most "built" N/A VW motors can't hit 100hp at the wheels. Now that is a lot for such a light car but I still want more.
