so, this is a little different than upgrades for your standard
scirocco. i'm using my '85 as a tow beast for a couple of trailers. no
problems braking or clutch wise...yet. i'm going to replace the 9a with
a 4k for the low end availability and will replace the clutch at the
same time. the sachs sports clutch i had worked great, but should i look
for a stronger pressure plate, etc? i've also been thinking about
upgrading the brakes (even though the one trailer already has them). are
the 16v brakes larger? should i opt for the 2.0l 16v brakes? mind you,
if i stop better than the trailer and it comes loose, i'll be sitting in
the trailer. =:o
any thoughts on the matter will be entertained.
