Re: Turbo Question

["Ryan Schuermann" <rts@nol.net>]

let me expound.... you have a 'MK2' Scirocco ...the G60 engine
will fit...Your car will kick some serious ass...

now, the G60 Corrado actually has a supercharger, not a turbo.
In order to makeit fit in a Scirocco you will need various parts from 
other cars and some new hoses. There was a very good article
posted in European Car a while ago detailing al the parts you will 
need. I also remember that if you wanted to retain your AC system
you would have to cut out a small portion of your core support.

If you can get this G60 engine, all parts attached to the belt 
system, the engine management system, and manifolds/downpipes/cat
for a very reasonable price, yank your engine out, cut the core 
support install the misc other parts and drop that bad boy in then 
wire i the new engine management system. It's a hell of a lot of work
but you will easily have a 210hp, 2100lb monster (after a few 
boltons), you will be able to walk all over just about anyhting on 
the street.

a blurb on the G60, it's reliable as all hell as long as you do 
regular maintenence, like get the seals replaced as often as you do 
the timing belt, and replacing the cog belt every 30k.

ps i have the golf fuel system, all the misc brackets, tranny dust 
shield and radiator that is required for the swap for sale...all u 
need then are the corrado parts and misc hoses.
