    Can do MK1 4 motion, designing the header around your engine specs is the way to go!

    Not doing 4motion anymore. ACT is way to strict.

    I hate to think how much you've spent on that motor. Guessing much more than the car cost you.

    the car has been in our family since 1991, marty (twin eng, twin turbs) and i both learned to drive on it and it's now part of the family. it was totally original when we got it. around 10 years ago it was resprayed and fitted with a 1.8, so this is it's second respray and new engine, but this time around marty is doing a ground-up rebuild.
