thanks buddy.
decided i'm going to get a 16v then bring it up on its power. cant justify the VR6.

Its not going to be cheap bringing it up on power, why not buy a vr then sell it on a few months later? Least you can say you've been there done that....

I can guarantee you wont sell 

[martin_hill_1989]

wont cost alot all to make good power from a abf

decat and system around £200 used. chip is about 70 and stripping it wont cost anything unless i buy some buckets.
possibly cams later into owning it maybe a set of TT268's or similar with VR injectors.

Vr6 is faster in straight line, (not much) But I could drive my 16v faster A to B than my vr6. I could get my 16v to "lift off" over steer. So if you do under steer the 16v you can quickly correct it with your foot.
No chance in a vr6! Push it hard into a corner and you just got to wait until it grips. It's a poor balance and the chassis wasn't designed to have that engine. If it was why would it sit so far forward over the front wheels?

If I wanted a track car I wouldn't even think about a vr engine. It would be a abf all the way!!

You are aware that 268 cams won't run with the standard ECU/plenum?

And VR injectors...this is going to be good to see!
VW are top feed and ABF stubby side feed...care to explain how that's going to work?

Why do you want bigger injectors anyway?
ABF injectors will flow all the fuel you ever need on an ABF with just a set of 268s.

I know it will need a different map as any car would. most of my freinds have had their fiesta's remapped with SS4/5's otherwise it runs horrible and dont get the most out of them as you'd know.
I read up on the wrong info too it was the 8v you can put the VR6 injectors on not the 16v
