Rebuild vs "reality performance" expectations

Post by KKV270 »

Hi.
I wonder, is it a realistic expectation to expect 180Km/h (max speed) from the Vw beetle/bus stock with a rebuilt engine? I ask because no matter how much I tried on my bus the max I'd get was slightly above 100/180!!

No it is not realistic.
