Thanks for the info.  If I understand this would be the same as changing the
"chip" in the ECU to a "performance chip".  Am I right? This sounds like a
great addition to my almost stock 1.9L motor.  The motor in my '85 has been
recently rebuilt, it now has 1.25 ratio rockers on solid shafts, the S&S
header from California Imports and a K&N filter.  Please let us know how
your 30 day test goes.
Thanks,
George
'85 Westfalia
