Is it a standar mk1 gti engine? if so why you wanna go back onto a single poop peiberg or even single weber, original injection will be lots better.

twin webers are ok, sound good etc but a pain the arse to get right and not cheap to do properly. Buying the actual throttlebodies is a piece of peeee its buying the management, all the sensors, wiring loom etc THEN having it mapped..

Both options are only worth your while if you want to tune it outside of the kjets operating range.

as matty says stick with the original injection its much easier.
