Hey ppl
just picked up a sweet 75 standard beetle..
it needs to be my daily to work and back driver while i battle to get my baja bug road legal..i have big plans for this car but it needs to wait untill i can use the baja as a daily driver and put this one under the knife..
question: stock fuel injected motor i have..
Can i run a blow through chevy sprint turbo with it?

i have a electronic points replacement..
i have auto craft 1.4:1 roller rockers..
I have a power pully (i dunno if i should run it)
i have a sweet K&N air filter..
I have a merged exhaust..i was thinking about installing these onto the motor..unless the ratio rockers will do more harm then good..
but i think it would be neat to build a header and run a small turbo on a small motor..good boost down low..nothing fancy..no electronic motor is gonna blow up super high rev stuff..just a simple turbo with a built in waste gate..running on a simple stock 7.3:1 compression beetle..

what do you guys think?

thanx
Cale
