Really? I'll keep that in mind.

I have read many texts about the bigger throttle body and changing the ignition distributor from 112hp engine but this was new..

hmm, so normally it holds back on the mixture becoz of the lambda.. what if you would modify the full throttle switch to be on all the time?

i hadn't try it but i will, i only read it in a vw-tuning book.

The easiest way to boost your JH Engine is changing the pistons.
Using EX or DX pistons will boost your Engine up to 105-110 hp, without any more changes.
The difference is that you must use premium gas.

Can do that, the frequency valve will than permanently run at 50%, slightly rich. Not the best way of tuning the JH, though
