M.H. Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Should have gone with an 8v, more torque than a 16v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im glad its not just me. I actually had it running and got it tuned to a drive able standard, the bigger problem I think i had was with voltage variation. I do want to have another try at it but not now. You know i still have the parcel shelf you sold me. Still looks mint. Drop around next time you're over this way man!

Ive seen a tonne of people have success with them. I should have really stuck with it but the engine did sound awesome on kjet. Nar im a sucker for mk2's \so I bought the girlfriend one. Thats the next project, might as well put the 16v in something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Duncan, sorry only saw this message now, the car goes awesome, I’m slowly updating the progress a little after it happens, I started the thread a bit late. Come by sometime and you can take it for spin some time dude! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
