    I got quoted R20k just convert from std carb to mp9 which I doubt it would even give more power. I wouldn't spend that type of money but you can't put a price on happiness 😂

      It will make your life easier (no need tuning your ignition timing & setting your carbs), if your car is standard, it will make a slight difference as fueling electronically controlled. BTW for R20k they should be able to fit an ABF. Maybe a bit extra for fuel tank & pumps etc.

    Modifying your car is a rabbit hole. BTW my VR6 24V gets 16l/100km in traffic so your car is light.

    Did you also gasflow the head ,you should actually put it back on a Dyno to see where on the rpm is all the Horsepower

      Hi there. No didn't gasflow the cylinder head, reason I can't pay 4500 to gasflow a head then just gain 4/5 kw. Will have a look at dyno next month will see. Thanks for your comment 👍

    If I may ask, Why are you using such a big radiator? Never seen a Mk1 Golf with that size radiator before...

      @ritchiesridemk1vwbuild853  Год назад +2

      Hi there. When I changed the motor was told to run with a bigger radiator and that was the only size they had. It's really good doesn't let the car run to hot in traffic. Thanks for your support.

    Will the idle be more stable with the weber 38 dgas and wont get lean at high revs?

    • @ritchiesridemk1vwbuild853
      @ritchiesridemk1vwbuild853  Год назад

      Hi there. 38/38 weber carburetor will be better at higher rpm no doubt. Idle no, going to be very rich on fuel, and fuel economy is going to be worse, as a daily drive. Thanks for your comment and support.
