Now off to John Mitchell Racing which is situated in Littlehampton West Sussex and is VW/AUDI specialist
Now I've been collecting some parts before the build starts.
2.0L 16v 9A engine
KR Cams
Polished and ported head
Blue printed
HRT Inlet manifold
CTN 02A gearbox
Peliquin slip diff
Stage four G60 supercharger
Schrick race sump
Alloy VW Polo radiator
Kenlowe fan
HRT intercooler
G60 chipped ECU and G60 loom
All going in my pride and joy

I'm running an mk2 GTI 1.8 8v
Which is for sale now.
To be honest it should be putting out 260bhp or more.
Stage 4 supercharger
And chipped ECU.. Won't really know numbers till it's finished..

Will be interested to see how she runs as I have not heard of anyone that manages to get Digifant to perform really well with these engines. There always seems to be a compromise.
The injector resolution is not fine enough to manage 42lb injectors and causes the closed loop lambda control to over reach and under reach - Jabba disabled that on mine, but it was then a pig on fuel.
I had two setup sessions and decided that the money would be better spent on a modern ECU that I could tinker with and have the ability to switch maps, add traction control (which I still have not done yet) etc.

Just out of interest what did mean by a 9a block with kr pistons as I thought they were smaller?

Its been a challenge and a very expensive one at that but hopefully all worth it! I understand now why there are no two 16vg60 engines exactly the same as there are so many choices to make.

Mine is just about how I want it now, although needs putting back together after installing a decent gearbox and hydro clutch. 260bhp will be very achievable if you use a programmable ECU. Mine is running Megasquirt.
Whereabouts are you?

Really appreciate the help if I get stuck.
Not really much to report at the moment. I've had my LSD put into my CTN gearbox.
This has been done by Bexhill Gearboxes

Also purchased some Nology hot wire HT leads.
I've had the block bored out to take my new Pistons and gave her a lick of paint.

My stage four supercharger has been fully refurbished with all new parts and given a splash of paint to.

Going to be using mk2 rallye speedo as its got higher mph and rpm.

Chopped up my inlet manifold to make a custom cam cover. Once I've wrinkle painted it think it will look good.
