useless
| Customer Rating: | This has been the worst purchase I have made. I did not find anything new at all in this book. The back cover promises the world but inside there is nothing at all. Carburetors are covered in one 5 line paragraph in the whole book without mention of who, how, what size, what brand NOTHING zero zip NADA
At one point he say that he wont recomend anything because some companies from his last book went under two years after its release Well thats great no recomendations SO why do I have a book with no suggestions. He says some heads are poor quality and are to be avoided uhhh which heads? what number or code, he DOESNT SAY. I really regret buying this book and if I must say something nice then I suggest you give it to a clueless person who will read it only for entertainment. |
Good presentation but lack of any 1.8T info
| Customer Rating: | | Very well written stuff, especially for non-experts. The forced induction chapter very well covered, but outdated. It is a pitty this book does not give any in-depth info for the famous VW/Audi 1.8T engine. The only reference is on page 22 where the legend says that the new 1.8T may be the wave of the future (although it is released since 1997) BUT mistakenly the photo shows the V5 engine instead of the 1.8T. Very unfortunate to refer to an engine just announced, and not mentioning the state-of-the-art 1,8T being in production since 97... Any way someone may fing a lot of usefull information in this book, although primarily adressed to American owners. |

Water Cooled Performance Handbook
| Customer Rating: | | This is a good book for general information, but many of the pictures are outdated, and the author fails to incorporate discussions of the newer technology. There are a few new photos, and a limited amount of focus on the newer cars on this "Revised" version. |
This is the best book to read on watercooled veedubs
| Customer Rating: | | I read this entire book in two days, as if it was a novel. This book is aimed at the real enthusiast who already has a knowledge of cars...buy it! |
