Tim Styles- think everyone will agree is the daddy when it comes to golfs!il quote exactly when i get chance but he says (not word for word but more or less)The difference between a well modified 8v and a well modfied 16v is about 20bhp. although the torque and low down performance of the 8v more than makes up for it.I aren't fighting the 8v corner or anything its just annoying when people make it out like the 16v is much better. Its like people are on about things they dont know enough about.I'm not sure about the 8v being a poor mans golf either, when i buy my veedubs money isnt an issue i love them that much. i chose the 8v because i personally prefer them after owning both and driving dozens. It has nothing do with money at all.Again, i am not fighting the 8v corner, nor am i saying its better etc- my original post was about people making out like the 8v was completely inferior to th 16v- how misinformed!
shut it you 8v slags
whats newer cars got to do with it?I thought we were on about the mk2 golf 8v and 16v engines?Yeah things have progressed but whys that relevant to this?Are you sayin the 1.6 diesel engine in the golf were brilliant too- just because newer diesel engines are?HAN... Yes your car is 8v darlin'!
do newer cars come with two valves per cylinder or are they multi valved?
