I know that Jake..... 8:)
I knew you went the realistic way towards Vanagon sanity.... installing a Subi.
Not that rare Oettinger Boxer 6.... which was the point of the OP of this thread..

Anywho, my point was I went the real-cheap Subi-way and installed the Subi (Radwell) liquid head
gasket stuff... works and I only spent $13 CAN-$ for the two bottles...
Just changed my coolant last month and loaded it with two fresh bottles of the Subi Stuff.... less than $10 now... wow!
Bet this is less than you spent Jake??? 

For Ben and  Greg....

Dang, you bright cleaver guys..... 
Gotta specify what kinda bottle I'm talking about.
Hit the Bottle (laughing gas - N2O) and wait for the BANG as the WBX explodes into 10,000 pieces.

I was thinking more along the lines of some $4 Octane-Booster or other guaranteed to disappoint cheap Hp - Booster.
So, Im looking at a Hp Booster that can be poured out of a plastic bottle at room temperature... Hah... that's got-em thinking!

Now back to that Oettinger search..... anyone seen one in person recently in North America?
