    nAH... the Delta is a turd. It's best used as a boat anchor.

    oh i knew they were heavy thought they were pretty durable though? I've seen built beta 2's turbod and making much more power anyway though, now that I think of it. lol

    I daily drive a TDI, so I have these "turd polishing" thoughts all the time. Eventually I said, "this is stupid..." and bought an E30... Never mind that we have two MINI's, a Spitfire, and two Volvo 1800ES's, so I really don't have time for another car...

    I still have dreams about modding the TDI... Suspension, chip, injectors, etc...

    So I'm no help whatsoever...

    I vote a 100hp shot of nitrous, did that to the wife's car, boy was she impressed at the stoplight speeds.

    I don't remember who grinds them anymore. I'd have to go digging. And yes, a standalone would be preferential. Outside of the Korean homeland no one really has the code cracked on the Hyundai ECU's. Sadly....

    OB: 250whp would be a reliable stock engine.

    Hmm, where would one go to learn more about such a proposed swap?

    And I'm liking Tom's cams/ITB idea so if you can find the cam info please post!
