Alright guys. Just to let every one know that we are serious, here's the site:

http://www.bugfest.ca/

I just put it up, and it's rough, but it's a start. If anyone has more media (pics,videos etc), please forward it my way. And all the guys out there with the 'watercooled-connections', please by our 'hype-men'! Alot of big name sponsers are stepping up, so its going to be LIVE!

Keep 'em on the road,
Lanner

Sounds cool.

If I don't have the 2.4T ready for this show, I will sponser someone for the dyno day from our club.

I can't plan that far ahead, but I like Sandeep's idea of 'pledging' the 60 bucks either way.

So count me in for 60 bucks, I'll for sure mark my agenda and try to be there, with or without bug.

Lanner, you are a great advocate and motivator for the VW community !

Rob.

1956cc
Rimco preped case, clearanced/full flowed
76mm 4340 crank
90.5 mahle P/C
stock rods (balanced)
042 heads with mild P&P (40X35 stainless with HD springs)

chromoly pushrods
Weber 44 IDF's on matched manifolds

To the wheels, my guess: 95HP 105TQ

What's the compression ratio?

Sandeep · #23 April 17th 2007, 12:32

Looks like I will have the 2.0T T4 together for this event. The 2.4T T4 will have to wait till after the event

Lets get some guesses going ....

1. I will guess 105HP, 119TQ to the wheels for Alex's 1956cc

2. Pete's 1600cc will have 47HP, 61TQ to the wheels.

3. Lanner's bus ... hmmm thats a tough one ... 1500cc single port ?

2.0T really?? So you've got 2 motors on the go?

My garage:

-1600 on the bench getting prepped for the super
-2332T on the stand for the split
-2332NA parts scattered everywhere after teardown.

I'm finding it really hard, keeping myself from bolting a few goodies on the 1600.

Thanks Pete,

I wanted to keep it simple, but all business too. Well I've got the car up on jack stands, tail in the air. 1600 is out, so is the tranny. So I think I'm gonna be waiting on a tranny (i decided now that it would be best to upgrade the drivedrain.....

) so as soon as thats all sorted, we're ready to go. I've got lots to keep me busy though, cleaning the engine compartment, re-bushing the pedal cluster, wiring, paint my calipers etc.......

Alex

**petevw** · #28 April 18th 2007, 08:14

Where/who you getting a tranny from?

I'm using the heads and custom cam / ceramic lifters from the 2.0 for the 2.4. When I get the 2.4 built, I will part out the 2.0.

I thought about parking the bug for this summer but just could not do it

I am now 80% sure I can make it. I just need to hammer out a few details.

I looked at Mapquest and for some reason it rejected Manchester, Ontario ... so I looked at the flyer and punched in Port Perry, Ontario, instead. I also punched in Pickering for Dyno Day and Toronto since my wayward Orioles are playing the Blue Jays Friday night.

Three questions:
(1) Where is a good place to stay? (Please keep suggestions reasonably priced.

) I will likely have my wife and daughter with me.

(2) Deleted: I found I out a passport is needed.

(3) Once I hammer out the last 15-20%, how do I pay? I will bring Canadian currency but I am curious about paying for Dyno Day which is also in Canadian dollars. (It is not clear to me how one signs up for the Show & Swap from the link.)
