I know our stock pistons are made by Mahle and they are cast, right?? Mahle also makes the SRT-4 pistons
Is this rebuild kit legit or what?

Maybe I am misunderstanding your question, but that isnt for our engine.

haha, that's what I was thinking, but I think 17xxcc is the highest one you can buy for a bug. Definately not gonna fit ours..

Cool so we can swap a Beetle engine into our 2gnt's now? COOL! Factory turbo woohooo!
How much boost do you think I could run on that?

Dont forget the NAAAWWWSS guys
This pistons are desingned to burn a lot of naws...yah this swap would be the best although you might need to pour in more Vtec to make sure it runs good
