RE: Purest Type 3 group?


Is it possible to go back to FI if you have dual carbs? I don't know why
my car was converted,  but should I go back, or is that a controversial
subject?

Just curious, who is into stock and who is into custom? I personally
like custom because I think a car is an extension of your personality.

The .009 distributor and the blue coil are downgrades.  Same with the
dual 
carbs., if you have a stock engine with FI.  Why waste money? 

One thing to keep in mind is that 99% of the aftermarket parts available
are 
junk when compared to original VW stuff.  So don't throw away those
original 
parts. 

I can appreciate any car in excellent condition.  I would say that
applies 
to 1% (or less) of the customs out there but probably 50% (or more) of
the 
stock cars.
