how much power the Mazda engines produces?

the Chasis of the VW can withstand some serious horsepower......safely up to approx 250bhp with hard launches......only need a small modification.

breaking the chasis??.....i dun think that will happen.....never seen it in my life even with Beetles up to near 300horses.

depending onyour driving style,the first thing to is the Ring and pinion gear in the VW box....espeically those who like to do burnouts....

anyway, there are quite a few Subaru VWs in the klang valley.....so a Rotory is not really surprising....but i have to say the conversion is really neat.
