Mate, there sh1t cause the mk3 weigh's so much!! great in mk1 or 2 though.
Shoulda gone for the valver if any gti IMHO like i said to you charlie. Nearly same performance to VR when slightly tweeked

The engines suck though as standard.. like what 2bhp increase over the mk2 with 200cc more? They have a very soft cam for emissions, cat restricting flow, a single butterfly throttlebody which isnt very big.. a crap management system. Put a PB head on the 2.0 bottom end in a mk1 or mk2 then were talking like lee says.
