16V G60 update

[bbeacock@uoguelph.ca]

after alot of calling around and information gathering, I have sort 
of decided what I'm doing with my Scirocco.  I plan on putting the 
16V in this week and i'm going to run it stock compression for now, 
until I get it running properly and tuned up.  I have a raceware head 
bolt set to be here tomorrow or Wed.   
I talked to EIP tuning and they seemed to know a little bit about the 
stuff but they said I should talk to Germany cause VW made a VERY 
limited production of G60 16V motors.  But he said I should get their 
2L piston/rod/bearing/ring set (of course theirs).  he has one on his 
car and it puts out 200 HP plus a nitro shot.  The piston are thermal 
treated and could handle the full boost of the G60 at 10:1 cr.  or I 
could get custom made 9:1 and boost up to 14-16psi.  Not to bad I 
think.  The kit is only $750 + cylinder boring.    Unfortunately this 
is way more than I've spent on anything in my car so it won't be 
possible for a few years anyways.
