G60 1.6 or Duel 40's

I have a mate in the USA with some Mahle pistons with a lower comp ratio (8:5.1) which he will sell to me at a pretty decent price, that with a bigger HG should hopefully allow some fun.

The only thing thats keeping me umming and arring is the converting from Carbs to Digi. Thats whats so awesome about Duel Webers.. not cheap but atleast theres not too much stuffing around.

Bout the only way to tackle this would be to get a salvaged engine complete with the wiring, ecu, fuel system etc from a donor car. Otherwise it would likely be a big headache...

Cost me about $750 in freight alone to import a 1.8T engine in from the US in 2006 ( think thats when it was ? ) + the initial cost of the engine, drivetrain and import duty on top.( sorry, govt rip off ) So sourcing anything O/S is likely to cost you a good few dollars...won lotto lately...

Best of luck buddy
