But I will also say vr6 golfs are so cheap now it would be stupid to do a conversion!

Stronger elastic bands might pull the engine apart, i wouldn't risk it myself.

Take off the cambelt and power steering belt and replace them with lightweight, high performance bands.

Should let you rev more freely.

I got the polypro bands on ebay much cheaper than the posty...nice change in engine note too and longer life expectancy compared to standard cambelt...
