One of the most overlooked upgrades? Your exhaust system. 🔧⁠
⁠
A quality muffler, a solid J pipe, and the right exhaust tip can completely transform how your vehicle sounds, flows, and performs. We see it every day in the shop.⁠
⁠
And the secret you might not know? It will work on your Waterboxer or Subaru Swapped Vanagon. ⁠

The team at Small Car has the experience, depth of knowledge, and team ready to support your project. This most recent Subaru Swapped Vanagon project was originally a diesel. The technical details are dialed on our swaps to ensure the same reliable outcome for any Vanagon no matter what it started out as at the factory. 🔧⁠

Not all air intakes are created equal. Here's the breakdown 👇⁠
⁠
🔵 Standard Cold Air Intake - Does the job. Reliable. Great for daily drivers and Subaru swaps keeping things simple and clean.⁠
⁠
🔴 Performance Cold Air Intake - Built for those who are going to push their Subaru Swapped VWs offroad. Enclosed Stainless-Steel construction coupled with a stock Subaru air filter provides increased airflow, better throttle response and improved performance across the board.⁠
⁠
Which one is right for your build? Come talk to the team at Small Car Performance and let's figure it out together. 🛠️⁠

The future of Vintage Vehicles Electric Swaps is HERE. We installed a full Tesla 3 battery pack into the floor of this Brazilian Bus build and honestly… it changes everything. The full drive unit of this Tesla 3 swap allows the vehicle us to say goodbye to the original transmission of this vintage vehicle and to get full drive power to the wheels from the battery pack. 🤯⁠
⁠
Interested in an electric conversion for your vintage vehicle? Contact us and let's talk. This is the build you've been waiting for. 🔋⁠
