VW Performance Upgrades

Over the past 35 years, WPVW has gained the reputation of being an Australian leader in aircooled VW performance. We have gained this reputation through winning countless racing events and breaking dozens of records with our in-house developed high performance VW aircooled engines.

WPVW Phoenix Turbo Type 4 engine

We have multiple engines powering our racecars and street cars that are used for our own research and development. An example of one of our research cars is Dean's Turbo Type-4 powered Beetle. This car was developed, built and tuned in-house at WPVW. It is street registered, produces an incredible 309rwhp on 16psi boost and is driven daily! We collect huge amounts of data from our research cars and we use this data to further push our already industry leading engines to new feats of power and reliability.
