vw beetle turbo

[ChrisFlo]

Anyone know the specifics on how fast these cars are stock? (0-60,1/4mile, hp, tq)? I was on the road today and one flew up on me and passed me. I was pretty impressed by it. I didnt get a chance to go off the line with him, but I was wondering if I'd even stand a chance (assuming he was stock). I have a 98gst stock.

there the 1.8T motors they make 180hp and similar tq they are high to mid 15second cars.. they are slow

The cars can be made to go fast very cheaply. Just add a chip, turbo back, race valve, and one or two little things, and you're in the mid 13's. It is decent for someone with FWD.
