    Description

    Volkswagen Beetle - Super beetle.
    Many mods to this beetle, who doesn't want a 220hp+ VW beetle instead of the stock 1600cc 40hp'ish.
    I purchased this beetle in early 2018 with the original 1600cc engine and drove it often until late 2019 i decided to do a engine swap.
    Clean blue title in my hand with my name.
    Comes with 2 original keys one for the door and one for the ignition
    Car is on the stock VW trans,, granny shifting it and only 30% throttle the trans will stay together
    Car is on 6lbs of boost which feels plenty fast- does fine on the HWY but because its on the stock VW 4 speed
    is revving higher than id like at 70mph @ 4th is (4100rpm)
    This car is not for the novice, clutch grabs fairly hard and since the car doesnt weigh much (1800lbs) is moves quick
    A 2002 Subaru WRX wagon was purchased and the motor and engine were used.
    -Motor was take apart and rebuilt with all OEM gaskets/oring etc...(Basically a new motor) Has about 5/600) miles since the swap was completed

    -Engine is on 3+gal of Zertex (blue)
    -Aftermarket CD stereo deck, works but disconnected
    -Perrin custom short ram intake
    -Horn works good
    -New MAF sensor and spare
    -Stock FMIC
    -Tires nothing fancy buy have decent tread and hold air just fine
    -Come with older gen COBB tuning device, I never used it and installed on car.
    -The stock PCM and entire Subaru harness are under the rear driver side
    -New Battery less than 2 yrs old
    -Rust under the rear seats were cut out and replaced
    -When I got the car there was a battery drain on the car and never found the issue so its been on a kill switch and works just fine (comes with 2 keys)
    -Exhaust is about 3ft long and is loud and thermo wrapped
    -Stock turbo has a blanket as well
    -Stock drum breaks work well
    -Stock pea shooter exhaust are fake, just for looks
    -Both windows roll up fine and doors lock fine
    -Inspection has past before on the swap.
    -Classic car insurance can be purchased for cheap rates on older classic cars
    There's so much I'm forgetting, need nothing to drive home, starts right up.
    Negatives:
    I haven't one thing to the exterior
    Has usual rust behind the rear windows, common on the super beetles
    Interior is sparse. no carpet
    Low beam on pass went out
    Blinkers stopped working, haven't looked into it, could be a fuse
    Reverse lights work good
    Dent on the front driver fender, honestly don't remember when I got that, could be easily pulled out.
    Front bumper is a lil crocked but can be adjust im sure.
    Inspection is expired because I haven't driven much.
    Reason I'm selling is I haven't use it like i should and i have to many other projects, lots of time and money into this VW and is worth the price.
    Comes with some extra parts as well.
