We know it makes about 300whp at 16lbs and 250whp at 7lbs on 91 octane. The question is what happens when we push it to 25,30,35lbs like the whole setup was designed for.
What transaxles are you guys using? IIRC you were using a B5 Passat box. I would be very surprised if it could handle the hp levels you're discussing without serious modifications.
I want to be this father/son duo when my son is old enough to drive/wrench/etc. Love the content. You're living my dream.
THANKS YOU FOR Sharing This video
We always have the unexpected happen to us lol great content. 👍
That LS sounds amazing. Sucks the Dyno day didn’t go as well. I would have wanted to see what the 1.8 engine can do.

It's actually the Porsche 930 4 speed. One of the strongest out there. We'll probably find it's limits at some point. :)
The orange car runs the Passat 5speed.
This is why hub dynos are so much better (and safer)
