VW Corrado - stevieg
A colleague of mine is looking for a Corrado Storm. There is one in Autotrader,

tinyurl.com/33ojr

it mentions a \"alcohol system\". He rang the owner who said it was a performance system from the states.
Has anyone heard about this and what exactly is it?

Seems like they inject alcohol into the turbo to allow higher boost pressures - not sure how it all works though

I would search long and hard for a completely unmodified Corrado Storm with one or two careful middleaged drivers who kept up a FVWSH and preferably garaged it. It will take some finding but if found will be depreciation free and as good car. Any modified Corrado is one to avoid.

Stevieg,

I've shortened the url (####) as it screwed up the page layout, and I've also removed your postcode from the Autotrader search as well.
