2.0 8V turbo?
« on: 27 March 2016, 11:21 »
Hey guys I'm new here I've just bought a golf gti for the third time had it over a month now it's a Mk3 2.0 8v!!

Now I've found a few head gasket spacers for adding a turbo to one of these!!

Has anyone done this before?

And does anyone have any tips and help on how to turbo it?

I have already ordered Kent cam and pulley valve springs short shifter!! It's been port polished!! Just need a descent clutch! So next step is turbo?

Don't waste your time on an 8v AGG or ADY etc

Very little gain for very big money,not worth doing at all.
