Brilliant! That's going to be a great drive, my old MK2 had a mk4 VEP TDI 110 bhp with a VNT 17B and couple other upgrades. This one's going be better I hope!
Thanks Steven, I know everyone thinks its nuts now - However my 1st mk2 TDI swap in 2004 got even more comments as I turned up at a VW show mid conversion, popped the bonnet - dash out & mk4 clocks placed on the heater box
Got the corrado clocks to talk to the ecu so I had corrado Rev clocks talking to the tdi ecu. Took a bit of time to work out, like to said back then no one was doing this swap and no one seems to know how to
Yes they are brilliant engines, for the day way ahead, variable pump timing. Solid and Ideal for camper upgrade. I only took mine out for a later, more tuneable version and 6 speed gearbox but requires bit more work than a PD
Cool project. I'm also doing a modernization project on my 90 Corrado. ALH TDI with up rated VNT-17A turbo, B3 passat antilock, and Climatronic

I did a 1.9 ahu swap on my corrado . I got told “what ??! You turned a 2 door sports car into a tractor”. Had to be the funnies comment I got
