ABA swap into MK II Scirocco



The installation is only going to happen on Sundays. It'll probably take a couple Sundays to install 
the Megasquirt and get all the wiring in place. Need to get everything ready so the actual engine 
swap can happen in one day.
So, in other words, there's going to be  alot of slow boring shit until THE day.
It'll be a while yet, so we'll see as the project progresses.
