Sport Tuning Book?



There are a bunch of books about tuning watercooled VWs, including the
early CIS systems. What applies to A1 vws applies to the MK1.

Personally, I love the simplicity and reliability of the CIS system - and
all my cars will probably remain so equipped.

In terms of finding expertise on tuning this system, I think you need
look no further than this list :)

Hi everyone,

Does anyone own a copy of that book, "Volkswagen Sport Tuning For Street
and Competition", by Pat Schroeder?  I had a chance to quickly flip
through a copy the other day ... looks like a bunch of jibberish about
changing Motronic mapping chips and such.  Is there anything worthwhile
in
it for the diehard Mark I enthusiast?

Arg.  I think I'll write a book about tuning Mark I (real) Volkswagens. 
It seems like something that is sorely needed, in a world smitten by
computerized fuel injection and other yuccky junk.
