<< Hi Michael,
    What's the name of your shop?
    I've been following comments about the 5 cyl conversions (Kennedy
mostly).  What's your opinion?  How much more HP will the 5 produce?  (We
would like to be able to tow our 18' boat, but figure that to be
unrealistic.)  What would you figure a ballpark est on the total cost would
be if I hired the work done?  Any input would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks!

 Hi Greg. I'm at Chaplins Bellevue VW. I haven't personally installed a 5 cyl
kit yet but Mark at Redmond Werkshop in Redmond, WA. has (down the street
from Microsoft). They are installing a 5 cyl engine with CIS injection. I
would personally install the 5 cyl 20V engine from the early 1990's Coupe
Quattro or the 90 body 4 door. These engines are electronic fuel injection
instead of mechanical, less parts needed and the stock fuel pump can probably
be retained. Also it's a non turbo good for 162 HP. Call Cub or Mark at 425
885-7677. See ya, Michael
