Cool, I do love a mark 1. I have an "84 GTI. But really forget the 1.8T just boost the shit out of your 8valve. I went for a ride in a hugely boosted one and it was just scarey fast. Tonnes of power it sheered the 8 5/16th rivets at the centre of the comp clutch disk.
We do need more old school cars here.

Gordo.

What carbs was that 8 valve running? I have CIS right now but wouldn't throwing some Weber twin 45's on it. They sound soo cool.
