At the Raceshack tuning facility in Tweaksbury fitting version one of the Junk Yard Turbo install. on a barn find VW wbx waterboxer 2.1l DJ motor we fitted the guts of a Saab turbo kit with Garret t3 turbo mated with the k-jet mechanical injection from a scrapped VW golf GTI. This was topped off with parts of a water to air intercooler from a Totota Celica turbo. Controlled with MSD ignition and an MSD distributor and coil the bus started to behave and made a little of 8lb of boost in initial form.

The standard gaskets in the original exhaust system were the weak link preventing more boost.
