    yes well done ol chap, shes a '77
    1.8 gti motor out of a '93? i think? (an g'box) - i duno, couldnt follow that bit, thought mk1s stopped about '86 or something..anyway
    i was hoping to just chuck the carbs on and flog the absolute F**K out of it around my usuall stomping grounds, but i must wait breifly as there is always more to be done.
    but pretty soon ill be out beating the ricers, by even more this time.

    its a twin throat, its runs on the 32mm on small throttle openings for economy, then when you give it s**t the 36 opens aswell

    gotta get my pinkage sorted, got some parts, just gotta scratch my head and fiddle and get it right and working sweet... OHH that sound.

    32/36 DGAV Pre Pollution 2L off a escort fitted to a TS Passat intake.

    Same as this



    Should work O.K. for a daily beater.

    Never know, I might just fit all the CIS gear & ported intake out of my old crapper tank to it. Heap's better.
    Just have to remove it from the GTI. Maybe once the other engine goes in.

    The thought of a turbo'd straight gas setup has crossed my mind before too.
