I've fitted a Accuspark kit to my 1.6 mk1 Scirocco and very pleased with the results, it been on the car for about 4 years and been great.
Not sure if this kit fits the 1.1 but according to the Accuspark web site it's the same kit?
My be worth sending an email to check then you can buy from them directly or through there eBay site.

Cheers bud, I went with a Powerspark kit in the end K9 I believe it is.
My problem now seems to be not enough movement on the dissy shaft to time it up correctly, I'm maxed out on adjustment and still a bit retarded …. But thats for another thread maybe!

Not up on the 1.1 engine but with the 1.6 and 1.8 you can pull the dissy out of the engine block and adjust where the dissy sits so you have more adjustment with out dissy getting stopped by the engine block.

I filed out the slots on the dissy to allow for a little more adjustment.
Gathering parts to 20vt it now anyway. 1.1's just ain't for me.

That will be a big jump up from a 1.1.
Lots of work to keep you busy and moving the engine mount of the small block is not for the faint hearted.
Let us know how you get on.
