16v ABF into 8v GTi - What do I need?
« on: 05 June 2009, 09:40 »
What bits do I need to carry out a conversion from an 8v AGG enigne to the 16v ABF engine? Obviously I need engine, wiring loom, ECU, key, exhaust manifold... What other little things am I going to need? I am planning on using the current gearbox so no hassle of having to change the gearlinkage!

Most of the details are in this thread: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=118551.0

Well worth checking your insurance 1st as a converted car will be more than a factory car.

Thanks Wayne, insurance shouldn't be a problem. The car will be insured as and when needed for competing in rallies.
