Why in the world would you swap an 8V in? How could you decide that the screaming 16V doesn't cut it lol? That would probably fix your straight line grunt issue!

 

Welcome, nice rides. I love the GTI, looks really clean for that era.

Welcome, nice cars. Rumor has it I have a fetish for VW's. If I see you tooling around Gahanna I may do dirty things to your car. ABA should move that thing around pretty good.

you live in hunters ridge?

 

 

Close, but no. Rathburn woods.

 

 

 

The previous owner swapped the 8v in the late 90's when 16v engines were not available because their host GTI or GLI wasn't rusted out in the junkyard yet lol. And yes, my car came stock with the 1.8 8v.

 

Thanks for the warm welcome all, and feel free to call me a Euro snob or Nazi or whatever else floats your boat:D. Doesn't bother me.
