     List Members,

     I'd like to get more background info concerning the 
     supercharger that's soon to be offered by Advanced 
     Motorsport Solutions (for $3800 ?).  Abe, can you help me 
     out with more background info as related to the 
     Neuspeed/Vortec venture? What's this about doing away with 
     the mass airflow sensor?
     
     As far as future engine mods go, I was considering going to 
     the 3.1 liter with the Schrick variable intake, large 
     throttle body and mild Shrick cams. I figured that would 
     probably make enough power. As far as the tranny goes, I 
     plan to install the Qaiffe (sp?) differential, as I did on 
     my '85 GTI, to help hook up the additional torque and 
     possibly go for a sixth gear as well. Any thoughts on this 
     configuration?
