saysomestuff 0 Posted January 3, 2006 I'm sure someone a bit more knowledgable will tell you more but seeing as you have a 4-pot already it'll go on the stock mounts (obviously uprated would be preferred) and use G60 gearbox, uprated clutch and G60 driveshafts (may as well go for the hubs too for better brakes).. QPE do standalone management that a lot of people rate but depending on which engine you get hold of, OE management might be fine although you'll need the clocks/loom/key to sort immobiliser issues. I've yet to find a "definitive 1.8T" info source but the clubgti forums are a good starting point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulG40 0 Posted January 3, 2006 wow she gonna be brething fire then?!! lol well I kinda need something to replace the G40 and that was a hoot being 180BHP so I reckon this might just do it! seeings how the body is in as good a condition but some of the mechanics are'nt to great this is the perfect project car so here goes VW project number 2 plus in the winter months with no bike I need something to replace that need for speed. Cheers for the info is very handy will read up more into it but I reckon this is the path I'll take. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
