Good plan... welcome to the forum then. :afro:


You'll find plenty of info on here and the mk4 20VT's are very tunable cars. good luck with your search.

Sounds good.... well there are project pages for that and a dub rides section where people also post their projects so that they can get feedback.. Hope to see yours in there soon.  :cool:

You may be better off trying to get a car that has already had the work done, its fair enough putting in bigger pistons but there are alot of extra cost's on top, not just the re-bore and hone.

What turbo have you got? ko4 or ko3s? (or of course somthing more tasty still)

Nice one!

You will need bigger injectors (380 cc iirc)
Different/custom mannifold
New clutch
Re-map too
And a load of other little bits that will add up im sure (e.g. new oil lines, cooler)

Edit: Just found this from somone who has done it! I would Ignore the LSD though

i thought be cheap little upgrade as got KO4 turbo downpipe and cat for £100! but then one thing after the other all adds up! you need

turbo and all lines

turbo inlet pipe

exhaust manifold

downpipe

cat (decat, sport)

cat back exhaust system

injectors

4bar fuel pressure regulator

front mount intercooler

3" MAF and airbox or prefererably CAI

uprated clutch

bigger brakes

and best off gettin a limited slip diff to put down the extra power

and a custom remap
