Not only that, but 2 FOUR DOOR MK1 16v's!

i don't know if there is even 2 16V mk1 two doors in aus.

actually, I'm sure there is. but regardless, 4 doors FTW!

I have a feeling Preen's will be pretty quick though matt, unless you've got something up sleve!

Yeah, like another 80 horsepower. j:

Yeah go the 4 door :)

I`ll race anyone Chris, but I`m sure yours will be lots quicker.

OK, So changed the fuel pump from a kjet one to digi and had a tinker with the timing etc. Its now driveable and reliable.

I`m still running in the motor, but its 100ks old now with nary a hitch.
The more I drive it the better it gets.

Loads of midrange in 3rd and 4th, so different to an 8v Mk1.

Still a little rich down low, but when shes on song, its great.
Got it all back together, just little bits to tidy up.

It runs though, I`m wrapped.

It always looks so dark in the pics, it actually sparkles in the sun, now I just need a sunny day!

very noice !!!
go the four doors :)
by the way i want your exhaust tips
or mybe a square pare ????

I had forgotten how loud a Mk1 can be.

I have a Cat and a backbox thats it. Maybe I will put in a middle silencer too.

Thos exhaust tips come in square too, just dont let the clumsy buggers cut your back panel. Do iit yourself with love ;)

How does it run atthe top end Matt, I would expect it to go weak with a digfant pump. Kjet needs more pressure that digifant.
