They are VERY premature. This won't be happening for a long time as, with increased magazine work, I have no time to do any books for the foreseeable future. Sorry to disappoint you.

So the Feb 1, 2011 release date is a fantasy?

I found it while looking for books about VW engines, Keith I see you wrote several books talking about hot VW engines, what's the most complete ?

I think I'll go for the first one...

Gents, it's been at least 10 years since the last engine book from either Kieth or Deano. I've bagged on Deano in public   Roll Eyes for at least 5 of those years. Please it would be nice to have some new info now seeing that digital electronics fuel injection has come into the picture. Even if it just repacked articles from the last decade I would buy it. Kieth I'm sorry but I don't have access to your mags here in Utah, USA. I don't know what you have published. But I would say it is as good as what goes on here from your past books. Which I do have by the way Thank you for your past efforts. We look forward to more of it. Thank you Kieth and Deano.

Another thing that would be cool to found in this book - about tuning type4 engines.
They are more expensive and many people go with type1 engines, but you just can't deny them...
