Default VW golf mk3 2.0L: HEAD SWAP and VIDEO!

What's UP! VDUB, .. all my VW people, show some love!!

This is my dailey driver, and instead of the popular VR6 swap or the MUST DO 16v swap, I decided to stick with the 8v and plan on making 300hp turbo later!

But first things first: to get some power now, I BEEFed up the TOP END:

Mk2 8v ABA Head swap w/dual valve springs:
- 4 Angle valve job
- Port and Polish job
- Milled and deck: little higher than 10:1
- Resurfaced and High Temp. Coated all around

AUTOTEC 270 cam
SPA TURBO: adjustable cam gear: set at 0 degree, currently
ARP Head studs: non-undercut
VICTOR REINZ: MLS metal head gasket and gasket kit
BLACKFORESTINDUSTRIES: STage 2 PEM chip: for 270 cam
TECHTONICS: 2" INCH RACE downpipe: it deletes the cat
TECHTONICS: 2.25 catback: Dynomax
8V PULLEY SET
Bosch plugs w/ OEM wires/ Castrol Syntec oil: EDGE

BFI Stage .5 Engin mount Kit/ NOT YET INSTALLED
176 Degree Thermostat/ NOT YET INSTALLED
New OEM+ clutch/ NOT YET INSTALLED

After graduating and new job, want to get rims, interior, and STG 3 turbo kit
Shouts to: ECS tuning, NGP Racing, MJMautohaus, Black Forest, & Techtonics!

I can see why I wasted your time, you must be one of those dudes that stay on Call of DUTY, and spank the money when your not on it, so I'm sorry you took the time away from the game to use all your energy on something else..
