1: ive been told to use a 16v servo and master cylinder which will bolt straight on. to cut cost i want to use the servo on the 8v doner but it is on the L/H side can i still use it. is it worth it.and are there any mods to the break pipes neccecery 2:it not injection so ill need a fule pump. will that be easy to fit. any changes to fule lines neccecery. any help would be apreciated thanks

Very sweet - its debut is on the strip at GTI Inters, its already been to a show (All Types) and gets occasional weekend/evening use too…..

Must get it rolling-road tested at some point in the future.
