Re: 78 scirocco, how to get cheap power?



1.  Remove the restrictor in the primary side of the throttle body.
2.  Remove the silencer snorkle neck on the intake of the air box.
3.  Build a bracket to stand off the control pressure regulator off the front 
of the engine block to reduce heat soak.
4.  Adjust ignition timing to 6 deg. BTDC if engine can tolerate it w/o 
pinging.  If not go as much as you can up to when it begins to ping.
