On paper the 16v is faster, but the VR6 makes a better noise.Originally Posted by EndlessMKI
16v Mk1 felt pretty quick though. And dangerous with the wheels all unaligned

Update.
Knocked the shed down over Chrissy, so car has been sitting on the grass outside my house for 8 weeks untouched and unloved.
New shed now has a roof, but no walls so we pushed it inside last weekend.
No chance of the thing starting and I was feeling pretty peeved about the whole project.
Then I went to Pic and payless and got a Volvo fuel metering head, same Bosch part, hooked that up. Few noises, went if i poured petrol in the top, but wouldnt run.
Tried moving the accumulator, different accumulator, different pump. Everything. Still sounds like it needs petrol and wouldn`t rev.
Then DOH put petrol in it. Wouldn`t start on the little bit in the tank, but with 20Ls of the good stuff we are in.
WAHOO.
Starts, revs and runs.
Now I can be arsed to put the rest of it together. See you at the nats.
