S..t!  I am planning on becoming a 300hp hairdryer sissy in a 750kg car.
That is not sissy in my world, that is on the borderline of craziness.
Probably anyone with more than 140-150 hp in a beetle is in fact crazy. Whatever we rebuild in handling, brakes and safety devices, it is crazy.
.........and so much fun.

But if you can't build a proper N/A engine, you won't get 'exceptional' results with a turbo engine either.

If the oil line is thin then he will not catch up because he ran out of gear after approx 402 meters.

Papyss, are you telling me your age also?
In any case, I had Italian floors for five years when I lived in Magreta di Formigine in between Modena and Maranello.
 It is for me the only way to go. I love it!
