I think topher may be right about the supercharger not fitting

In the US they didnt get an 8V MK3 (I think), I think they only got the 16V and VR6 - I wouldnt quote me on that but I remember readin it somewhere
Quoting from that bahnbrenner link above..

The complete bolt-on Stage I kit bumps up your power by nearly 60% 177+ bhp 180 Torque!
That has to be talking about the 8V engine... since the 16V already has 150BHP so that's a pretty piss-poor increase if they started with a 16V...  People seem to get figures like that with a Chip, Filter and zorst on a 16V....

I'd love a supercharger kit for my VR though... :grin:  but it eats enough fuel as it is  :sad:
Sold the VR6... Now officially An Old Man With A Passat Estate.  At least it's a 1.8T :grin:

Fair dues dude, didnt read the small print - probably is for a MK3.

Found this site here with lots of turbo'd golfs, including a bunch of Mk3s:
