turbo 'rocs

[drew@dyermaker.cs.uoguelph.ca (drew)]

I've been running a Turbo Scirocco conversion (84 Wolfsburg) for about 14
months, with about 35,000 km to date (not winter driven.)

The car has been to Cincy twice, gets in the neighbourhood of 50mpg US,
and has a whomping 70hp and in the neighbourhood of 105 lb-ft of torque at
1900 rpm.

A planned intercooler upgrade will increase those figures to 80/115~ish.
