8v conversion
Is the conversion worth it?

The injection has less power than the carb 1.8? Wow!
I'm being given the engine as well as all of the wiring and ECU, gearbox, drive shafts, hubs, brakes and all other enginey bits, plus the BBS wheels on it as I'm helping my mate with his 1.8t conversion, I'm pretty handy with In car electronics so I'll be doing all of the wiring for him.
It was a consideration as I thought that it would have a bit more power and get better fuel economy but I'll just keep it in a corner till the carb engine dies I reckon.

I have a G reg Clipper cabrio which has the 1.8 engine, yes, the one with the Pierbug 2E carb and my friend has the 1.8 cabby GTI engine which I'm having off him.
Hope this clears a few things up.
