Love the side drafts, but cant argue with a good FI setup.

Always love looking at clean MK1's
 
Yeah the carbs were so cool, sound amazing, and looks more period correct for the car. But I like to go fast.




Thanks the mk6 is a great daily. I couldnt see my self driving anything other than a diesel at this point.

Same deathhare from Vortex I pressume? Its amazing how people with one similar interest have so many others in common
Vr looks TIDY in there!
 
Thanks, yeah its me.
Definitely amazing how so many things crossover.
Probably most of us could hang out and talk for days about similar interests :)
 
Damn you boys have some sick dubs! I've loved them all my life and owner easily over 100 of them.
Here are a few pics of my '81 Caddy and '02 911 next to my buddy's Lambo

Ahh deathhare! funny running into you over here. I am "Pats16vgti" on the kotex. Your cars looking quite nice these days! Gotta love me a set of cups. Are they all 7's or 8's?




Love the caddy and the turbo 16v I used to be obsessed with them until I started playing with 2.0xflow motors for half the price. Caddy looks clean, and I usually hate it when people try to fit up mk2 bumpers on rabbits. Whats going on with that long tube intake manifold?


I really wish I never sold mine.

1.8l g60 bottom end, xflow head, junk yard turbo, g60 managment. Complete late 90's turbo build that I ran forever! Kid still is driving it around out in the Poconos somewhere.

Hey man.
Yeah theyre all 7s. Would love some 8s though. :eek:
 
Hey Man,

Never been a member on Vortex, when it comes to my cars I play my own tune, do what I like and dont really give a shit if someone else likes it or not.
I built that caddy over 10 years ago and she is still mint, and pulls a strong 300whp all day. Its actually a real workout to drive, and eats driveshafts for lunch all the time, they seem to be my weakest point, but I only drive it once in a while so whats a driveshaft here and then.

As for the 911 I drive her all the time, she does a lot of track days and is just the perfect gem, set up just the way I like it.

Cheers.
D.
 
def not knocking your truck. I am interested in what kind of benefits you are seeing using that intake manifold with not much of a plenum I would assume its making alot more torque with the long runners. I see 2 fuel rails too what are you doing for engine management?
