swampyjoe · 15-05-09, 06:59 AM

i did this on a jetta about 5 year ago and i simply put an audi coupe bottom end, and a golf gti head up top, penny's in the injector holes lol followed by the injector seat things. carb manifold on and away it went. does no body put the 2l 16v into older 80s? that would be ideal especially as 170bhp doesnt seem hard to get.

Have a look on www.clubgti.co.uk

Lots of info on 2 litre conversions, including 8v and 16v.

I would like to do 16V one day.

3A is the 2 litre bottom end out of a F/G/H reg Audi 80 Sport, and is the same size as the 1.8.

6A/9A is the 2litre 16v bottom end (people use Mk2 Golf GTI 16V head - KR for this).

Or use an ABF out of a Seat Toledo / Ibiza 16V, as they are probably much newer cars, and you can "chip" the ECU

Cheers
Steve
