Congratulations! What are you going to aim for? Performance or optics? If performance, try to score yourself a 1,4 Diesel engine from a mk3 at a scrappy's, swap the crank + connecting rods and you've got yourself a 1,4 G40 :wink: Like the Americans always say: "there's no substitute for cubic inches" :mrgreen:

But do put in some fresh piston-rings, and maybe even get yourself a G60 charger on it, lot of stuff for the conversion to be obtained on German Ebay (search for "G40 G60" and you're off), plug in a decent Schrick G40 camshaft (also on German Ebay there's lots to find) and then you're off for the thrill of a life time, 1,4 8v with long duration cam an higher boost over the entire rev-range, without stressing your charger (even de-stressing the G60-charger compared to an original Golf G60!) and you'll be burning up the tarmack! Start training 1/4 miles and go do some work on the next sprint-event in the UK :mrgreen:
