I recently installed an indirect salmon gas injection in my calibra 93 Turbo 4×4. Supposedly the 350 hp should make up more for knap 15 sec, but on the test bench I get only 180 hp more out of aba. What can that hold out for the turbo??? Thanks now already Spieke

Spring is here: how do I make Magmarot summer party?
Hi guys, my Cali is Magmarot and the paint is still in a really great condition Since the time of the flower and tree dust flight starts now and I unfortunately have no way to get a garage here in B, I am curious about your paint care and maintenance tips. 2008 is the first summer for my Cali and myself … – So what can I take into account when caring for Magmarot? – Are there special means with which you could make particularly good experiences? – Is a paint varnish I have also heard about paint cleaners and color polishes, but think that these remedies are not necessary for my car, as I said, after washing the paint is nowhere matt and shines really beautiful. At the moment I work with “A 1 Speed Polish” and am actually very satisfied with the result. However, the effect only lasts about 1 – 2 months (depending on the weather), on the Pa ckung stands “up to 3 months”… So look forward to your tips and wish you a great start in spring… BG CS

Hey so that’s never happened to me before,I drove to the tuv because of a rider’s entry and the hu when the very young examiner came,I already had certain doubts,but according to his opinion my car had no operating license because of the shredded belt (abe present and no other seat) only his boss could convince him that,the voellig ok waere (now the examiner was already angry) he picked up my calli and I cracked a scream (to late, he had the brat under the now what followed I cling out for a short time,…. when he finally stood on the stage he hung with a long break bar on the rear axle rubbers (which he then read defectively declared and then clapped everywhere with his break bar on the underbody (but came through nowhere, unfortunately the uschutz is now completely in the ar………) as he passed the rear wheel box he cut his break bar several times with correct balance on the box,the left h I’m supposed to have a rep sheet welded on both sides, although there’s nothing on the left (feeled from inside) and on the right there’s only one spot def. is that allowed???????

Speedster with 1.6 turbo and gas? DSF engine
Hello, yesterday DSF engine looked around around 20 o’clock. Think it was a WDH. On the DSF side I learned that it was m episode 209. Subject was fuel saving concepts. Amongst them was an Opel Speedster with 1.6 Turbo engine and over 200ps. But it was not fired with normal gasoline but I think natural gas. Sound very interesting only I could not remember the special name of the model. Since I wanted to take a closer look I would have to know that of course. But he is supposed to be a single piece, but he thought it was very cool. Did he happen to see this jmd. and remember exactly what the Speedster was called and which company remodels the whole thing?http://www.dsf.de/…/dsf-motor.html Greetz

Your most embarrassing screwdriver mistakes
Day people! Since I’ve just seen something like that in the VW Forum, I thought you could do it here. Your worst screwdriver mistakes. What’s wrong with you? I’ll start off. -Oil measuring rod broken (1.5 weeks to wait for replacement at Audi). -Car raised on one side when changing tyres with 2 jacks. Result: One slipped, nice dent in the threshold. -Motor hood closed even though someone else was standing under it. Now you! Greetings!

Calibra purchase tip / recommendation?!
Hello, as the title already says, I want to get an OPEL Calibra. The choice has been made between VW Corrado or Calibra. Only for the summer to drive. But no broken and grounded or disfigured!! Only in the original condition!! I wanted to get some opinions, on the topic of year of construction, motorization, error sources, rust susceptibility / special rust points, which should be taken into account besides the normal reviews of a used one, etc … Maybe times noc h some information about consumption and so … Thanks!!!

The Calibra design
Hi guys, something interesting happened to me the day before yesterday: 16:30, after-work evening, city motorway ascent Berlin-Stubenrauchstraße, American work colleague (who is also a small sports car/coupe fan, but is more familiar with American and Japanese cars – in America he drove a made 91 or 92 Supra with a good 300 HP) on board. Suddenly he says “Hey, look at us, also a Calibra, only in grey and dirty…” … I look more closely and tell him “Nee, that It’s not a Calibra, it’s a BMW 8 coupe.” When the BMW turns in front of us, my colleague also recognizes the Bavarian roots and thinks that BMW and Calibra have an immense resemblance from behind. So far, I have only read about this resemblance in contemporary magazines, but even car-loving people confuse them, is new to me. What do you think about this? What have you experienced with your Calibra in this regard? BG CS

Calibra Last Edition… to hit!?
Hi, the Calibra has always been my dream car and just now there is one at the dealer: 12.97 EZ Last Edition in dark green, leather, climate, BBS Alus etc. so just the standard equipment of the LE. 120.000knapp down (unfortunately only the X20XEV) signposted with full warranty, TÜV/AU, full fuel etc. pp. for 5200€, so I still think pushable to 4500-4700€ since I have already bought 5 cars there in the last years. The only drawback: I have a new car that is just over 1 year old (Astra) -H Caravan)…but he would certainly take it back. That shouldn’t fail…the place in the station wagon I give up for such a beautiful car with a good conscience. Now to my questions: – Finn has a nine in the Fgst-No.? – What to say about the X20XEV…good care = very robust? – I think with one of the really very last models there should be no technical problems with child diseases or? Rust should also not be a Tehma!? – Is the price realistic!? And last but not least: from what f I should pay special attention and should strike, as far as everything fits, or rather look further (would tend to have a V6 with gas system)

huhu people , they finally got the horny clear glass parts… so I have to say for 149.99€ they are really a bargain. Shine nice far and the look is simply horny, they are also 100% fitting exactly. Had no problems during the assembly. here in the appended times some photos.http://serverberlin65.de/upload/DSCF0565.JPGhttp://serverberlin65.de/upload/DSCF0566.JPGhttp://serverberlin65.de/upload/DSCF0567.JPG
