Re: "Mawster Chadwick" <chadwick@mail.cadvision.com>: Re:cis qu
I can FEEL it man :) I dunno. I'm going to have my car dyno'd and find out
exactly how much more oomph the 5000 TB makes. I can make 70 MPH
(120 kph) at half throttle.... To others on the list: has anyone done a dyno
on a completely stock Scirocco? (through the drivetrain) For rough
comparison.
