You will post photos of the first tire-smoking burn out, won't you?

Hi all,

        Just wanted to tell you the 1.8t project is almost complete. There
are just a few bugs to work out. The 91GL really gets up and moves though.
You don't even use 1st gear. This creation can be viewed at
http://photos.yahoo.com/mattman541 Ingredients: (1) 91GL Vanagon, (1) 1.8t
Audi engine, (2) intercoolers & (?) time & money. I'm pretty sure my friend
Matt thinks it's worth it. If anyone else has done a turbo conversion I
would like to know.
