I live in the north of Sweden and this year the family have planed a trip to south of Sweden for a holiday with the caravan. That will be a trip on app. 4000 km back and forth and since that i have 1150 km to Bugrun the holiday trip will be the only trip south this year for me. I would be great fun to meet and have a chat with you sometime. Maybe next year!

Did a short road test today with higher boost pressure. The boost was set to 1.3 bar. The engine felt good and the clutch held up, but the tires spun lose. I have some fuel adjustment left to do, but i feels that i'm on the right track now. Im looking forward to get a 1/4 mile time with this setup.

Eftersom jag oxå är från Sverige och dessutom försöker dribbla ihop en turboladdad wasserboxer borde jag kanske kontakta dig på annat vis.
Vad har du gjort med växellåda osv ?

Update!
Finally a got the chance to test the car on the strip. And all the year of testing and developing payed of. 12,29s & 183km/h. With slicks and some more tuning a 11´s trip is possibly.
Im very pleased with the result, concerning the engine and gearbox i basically stock and done with street tyres 215/65-15. "Don't underestimate original parts". So the answer to the titel on this thread "HX35 to big for my WBX 1.9L?". No! Just fine!

Very well done, why would anyone choose a heavy old scooby over a Wasser? Baffles me, Pure VW power every time!

buildabiggerboxer,
I'd say the reason is because of availability of parts, proven reliability and cool factor.
