  • Hotrod your VDUB!

    This is an old school way of how they used to and still do tricks, making more HP. This is aimed more towards the novice builder. Great info!

  • How to Hot Rod Volkswagen Engines

    If you collect VW books, this is a must have. Features alot of old photos and information about vintage speed parts, and the engineers behind them. If you really need to know how to get better performance from your old Beetle, this isn't the book you need. The information, procedures, and advice is very outdated. Most of the parts mentioned are either no longer available, or have been deemed inferior by the newer technology available today.

  • Outstanding!

    This book is great, it have alot of info on tuning your VW, tho some of the material may be outdated. You should have some technical knowhow about combustion engines to really enjoy and put this book to good use. overall 8 out of 10.
