Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Jetta blew up because it jumped timing. Timing chain was supposed to be done at 120k and it was at 140k Fucking hell.

umm are you sure that you can throw a rod from a timing chain breaking?

 

Also Timing chains generally don't fail that early on and on many cars they aren't considered a service item. I'm genuinely surprised it broke if it actually did.

The 1.2, 1,4 and 1.6l engine variants are naturally aspirated.

That's what Jordan told me at least. They're already begun on throwing the new one in
