Hi everyone, new to the forum, and new to the VW van world I have bought a 98/99 exec 2.6i bus in pretty good shape, and my intention is to use it as a work van. My bakkie is too small. Currently it has the standard 2.6i motor in, and I was wondering bar replacing the motor, what can I do to get better power and yes fuel consumtion out of it?
Also it has standard rims on and I intend putting mags on, which is better and why? 17" or 18"
Thanks in advance
Shaun
