Point was "its not worth putting a turbo on an 8v" I'm saying there is more point if any cos you will get 160 bhp lots of torque and more oompf than a light fly.
I bet you could buy that Audi strip it out and get most of you money back selling it on and turbo an 8v having a blast doing it.
You aint going to make a Mk3 fast with much less than 180bhp and a decent hike in torque, every thing else just makes it feel faster.

The lightened flywheel only costs £150 all in with fitting.  Compare that with cost and hassle of the turbo.

Well worth doing just for the fun of it, sticking a light fly wheel and a cold air feed on an ABF is just as pointless as any 8v mod.....

Not at all. The difference in response is very noticeable with a lightened and balanced flywheel.  Best mod I have done so far.
Bet its really fast now and you eat scoobys all day.......

Erm no you cant eat a scooby in a bloody mk3. Wow some people....
Its fun.
And yes as my man says it revs realy quickly compares to standard flywheel.
Erm sarcasm.....

And yes revs really quickly

Does my Mk3 still get raped by my brothers van, every time

Ju571n was clearly wasting his time on his 8v as well :huh:

Those who HAVE built an engine will tell you its not pointless, 24 16 or 8 valves. You learn something and have fun doing it

You sir are 1 sheeeeeeet driver lol. :grin:

Yeah that I am, bumper cars are my limit  :laugh:

Haha even at that you still sheeeet!! F*cking with ya. Trust if you been in a car with a lightened flywheel it makes a huge difference.
I'm driving one with light fly and 3.9fd.......

So you should know what we are talking about. :undecided:

That or it's been done poorly or your nose is getting bigger by the second:undecided:

That's because all people do is talk about it or encourage people to do it but would never consider wasting their money
