your engine would have to be seriously reinforced to rev to this wouldn't it? ???

or just seriously lightened.
if you lighten and ballance a crank on a valver it aparently lets the engine safely rev 1000 rpm higher

its a worthwhile investment if your looking at modding a 16v, no reserve on it either

somebody should ring VAG and ask how much a new one is

my 8v will if I want it to and it'll still be pulling strong, just I have more torque if I change up.  ;D
