    no intercooler? motor and car look clean but without an intercooler your intake temps are going to sky rocket. my buddy had a supercharged ABA and he loved it until it got heatr soaked.

    the z-eng chargers are fairly quite compared to some others (it won't sound like a fire truck, or a cat screaming under the hood).

    imagine how i feel. its great motivation to get the tranny built though. will be deep cleaning. removed and replace factory diff with peloquin lsd. rebuild with new parts and install .71 5th gear. clean, prep. marriage. and then the swap will begin

    shoulda, coulda, woulda .... thought about going alot of different directions. struck a deal with mark about a year ago on the charger. waited for a local motor and tranny to be posted. picked it up and kinda been slowly collecting stuff since. bought a mk3 vr and almost yanked it to do a vr swap and say f u to the 2.slow setup but i like my ride height and oil pan clearance since i daily drive the car. decided i'll stick to the plan and finish this. when i get bored with it i'll pickup another car to make a go fast car. when this is done and im happy with it i'll build another mk2 gti like my old red one except vrt

    did it more so i don't damage the drain plug area. my current pan is almost ground through. wasn't looking for impact protection.
