About a month deep into the project, had to settle for something else.
Since the 2WD W8 Golf project didn't work out, he did what we all would do, and settle for something different. Naturally, he ended up making an AWD, twin-engined, 14 cylinder Jetta.
Turbo W8 in the back, VR6 in the front.
It may be crude, but it sure does make some sweet noises.

c/o VW Vortex
(it's not an easy read because a Vortex thread can't go a page before arguing breaks out)
Post #18, someone scoffs at his optimism and says they'll eat their own shit on video if he actually pulls it off.
A page or two later, builder posts a video of both engines in the car - running.
The next 10 pages are more updates to the project, videos, and all the members calling out the author of post #18 on the video he promised.

Canadian man? Are we sure this isn't crazedclay? Sounds like something he'd be crazy enough to try.

all he has to do now is to mix the both engines' exhausts together to go out one pipe.

Things like this make me realize I'm not the master tech I thought I was after successfully changing a belt.

No shit. It took me two weeks to troubleshoot an air conditioning wiring issue. This guy did this in about the same amount of time.

W8 sounds like a horrible idea. I'll take the 034 Motorsports mid-engined, twin-turbo monster, thank you very much. http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/03/mid…

Your post is way better than mine. I should have know this came from the vortex, and is a remind that I don't check there nearly enough.

Same city, even. Though, it could also be Victorious Secret, Luc.A, or POD (all from Edmonton).
