<br>
While over in Ireland this past summer I chanced upon a great magazine -- VW Motoring -- and in it an article on how this firm in England replaces the luggish airmeter in Golf GTi Digifants (same unit as in our Vanagons) with a conversion called &quot;FilmStar&quot; consisting of an interface to the ECU, translator chip, Bosch 70mm air-mass film unit, and a Bosch air-inlet temperature sensor. BTW, this is the same technology as used in the VR6. Power plots for the Golf engine showed a gain of 10hp from 2000 to redline and torque increase from 125 ft lbs to 143 ft lbs. Apparently, their firm has done hundreds of these conversions &quot;over there&quot;. <br>
<br>
Now it seems to me that this would be an easy conververion to our Vanagons -- right? (Certainly would work for all those Digifant Golf 4-banger Vanagon conversions out there) Combined with Kyle's cam and chip conversion one should have a pretty dynamic setup. However, I'm not sure if they would be willing to modify the unit for Vanagon installations -- perhaps there is not much to modify? <br>
