Title: 8v GTi tuning
Post by: Jay8v on 03 September 2005, 08:13

What's available for 8v's and what makes a noticeable difference without removing the low end torque that makes these cars so easy to drive in any gear?

There's a lot more power to be had by port and polishing the head and a lot more torque by fitting a 2.0 bottom end. :smiley:
