| apparently its not a widely done thing as the inlet on the head is on the rear of the engine, right above the exhaust - this poses issues with inlet temps.
i have heard about a crossflow head, but know nothing about it
bit of info here, cgti is the site for tech knowledge on tuning the older cars IMO
fyi you would block the injector ports and do away with AFM |

| itll be a right nightmare to run as a daily you would have to set it up with the seasons and if your sat in traffic the car will soon run lumpy etc.
id go with the 2litre bottom end with big exhaust valve P+P head, can & 4 branch etc - if you want to spend near on £700.. |

read up on that crossflow - inlet on front of engine, i guess it will be a mission finding the parts - prob the same cost as doing what i said above..
nd if you want to spend £700+ on tuning why not get a donor and go 6 cyl 12v - you will really like that noise |

| yep thats a drawback much heavier on the front end - there is a different way to drive them completely - however a well set up one with decent branded tyres is a bit of a tool...
plus the 145mph top speed (limited by ecu) is cool - which can be extended using a 5th gear out of a diesel - and they are solid enough to charge!

something i know nothing about - you need a mk2 syncro car and possibly a mk4 4motion box |
