Re: 58 beetle project now with nitrous
Well since you do seem willing to spend some cash, why not look at the pertronix system. I've got it and i'm happy with it.
From fastest to slowest:
Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy

Re: 58 beetle project now with nitrous
ja that is actaully the way to go then just get a ecu to drive the ignition and then you have the ecu to go FI later?ps hoe many horses are you spraying and how does it feel and does the motor like it?
