nice one cheers buddy, is that the only code for a gti engine? just ones come up cheap near me, will I need anything else like the ecu?

guys does anyone know if the polo 1.6 16v gti engine fits to the 1.3 gearbox like the 1.4 16v? or is there a box that will run it in the flick? tia

Ill listen all day long, your clearly a man that knows his stuff more than me. I appreciate everything you have said so far, when you mention leaving the timing out abit how would you acheive this? On the dizzy?

Thanks tom, how much do you think would need machining off the pistons? Also are the aee ecus mapable, thinking for fuelin? Thanks again

Thanks tom, hoping it was you that would reply, if i was to get the pistons machine (which was a idea) , how much do you think would need taking off? Also are the aee ecus remapable? Just thinking for fuelling? I dont want to spend thousands and dont want silly boost. Just that little extra, thanks again

Btw i work in a garage, im not a fabricator, but understand ill need oil feed/returns, maybe a high pressure fuel pump, going to fully rebuild the engine too, thinking around 3/4/5 psi.

H guys not been here in a while but just aquired a felicia 1.3, ive been thinking for a while to do a engine build so im going full commitment on it. So what i want to do is build a low pressure turbo engine on a budget, seen it done with the 1.4 8v golf engine but i want to use the aee engine as i understand the blocks used in a high power vw engine. Firstly i want to know if the 1.3 gearbox will bolt to the 1.6 block, secondly does anyone have sny input for the engine. My plan is do it on a budget. Thinking of decompression plate and 2x headgaskets, buy a manifold or get one fab'd. Thsnks in advance chaps
