what's the fastest you've ever taken your Scirocco?
Ah.. Humm nitrous... Perhaps in the future, I have more pressing plans for
the engine..
Like 3 way valve, p&P head, 276 or 280 Cam, and a bigger exhaust (2.25"
instead of restrictive 2")
And then see wher I am at with HP and torque and max speed. :)
Nitrous can wait, beside nitrous is for the race track, this is my daily
driver :)

You could, but unless you bump your compression ratio up to about 12.5:1
you're not likely to see much benefit. Even then, you won't see enough
benefit, if you know what I mean... :)
I believe Brian was referring to nitrous.
