amr500 on a stock 1600i bug

Post by sebug23 »

Hi, my name is Sebastian, i'm from Chile and i would like to put an amr500 supercharger on my 97 fuel injected bug, but i don't know if it will work with stock internals and ecu. Any observation will work.
Thanks.

I can't imagine that the ecu will be happy with that combo. I bought a 1600i engine recently for a bus project. First thing I did was through the ecu in the garbage. Stand alone is the best way by far optimize that combo. The stock digifant ecus arent well known for their ease of adjustability.
