i currently have a mk1 golf with 2l 16v abf lump on carbs great fun but the top end is lame it gets to 100 v quick but that is it are their aney better gear boxes? im using a 1.8.16v box.
I have a seat cupra gti box on mine 2.0 8v mk1 25mph per 1000rpm = 100mph@4000rpm(ISH) Bolts straight on if you are using large flanged driveshafts!
What do you want out of it is the question? I can build a box that will be rapid to around 125 but you'll be revving it hard by then, but as said, it'll accelerate up there quickly!! Or you could go for a longer ratio box, you'll be able to pull a higher speed but getting there won't be as fun. Edited by: Hotgolf
Sounds good, what kind of cost would that be? My ideal gearbox would be fast 0-80 (1,2,3,4th) but a nice cruising gear and a LSD while it's apart! Already have the larger inner driveshafts.
