looked like ur pully almost hit the exhaust in the video

 

It was close, The muffler didn't have a mount at that time so it was only held up with a jack stand I forgot how close it was and got halfway into the car when I heard the pulley grinding one the muffler, so I had to put a jack under the car to sit in it. Have it all mounted now so no clearance issues.

 

Dude! That is so badass! Drive it up to washington :-) Break-er-in nice!

 

Got the hardware for the oil coolers



Installed on block



Oil Coolers mounted up front



Lines run

 

Nice!

 

An absolutly amazing project! I would highly suggest getting some screens to cover the radiator and oil coolers, Road debris is a pita...

 

She moves under her own POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The clutch is very tight, almost as if there is little to no friction zone but I knew it would be like that getting KEP's stage 2 clutch.
SO MUCH POWER compared to a stock beetle!!! If I had this in my '73 Beetle in high School I would Probably be dead right now.
I don't know anything over 25MPH as I only tested it in the neighborhood but I can't wait. Deffinitly need to get some shocks and a wheel alignment!


Click on the Movie! Sorry for the low quality.

 

So awesome!! I can't wait to see this thing finished, you'll have to go out and get a video of Beetle vs. RX-8 when you're done, lol.

 

That should be good

 

so badass dude, every time I see a bug I want to throw a 13b in it and to see someone else do it is awesome. You need some R3 19"s on that beast now lol

 

It's Alive!

Congrats man. That thing will be a ton of fun

 

I got your tons of fun right here

 

freaking sweet! I'm definitely going to have to see this beetle in person over the summer. Something as bad *** as this, i can't pass it up!

 

your bringing it to DGRR right??

 

so next.... turbo or supercharger?

 

Looks good bro, you using push lock hose on the coolers or clamps? I am using the Push Lock on my single cooler and trust me, those hose will never slip off.

 

VERY VERY nice project! I love it.

Paul.

 

Subscribed. Amazing!

 

Push lock, Running the plumbing for the coolers was pretty easy, thanks for the help.

 

Headlights, tail lights

 

Man, I am so impressed you can do something like that on your own. I only wish I had the patience to do something like that. I saw all your pics and videos on Photobucket. Kudos!
