    Hey my guy love your videos....your correct about the conversion costs but if you dont want your cv's etc to break just install lower strut bar at the front and even now with your 2l conversion you will feel gains without even modifying the engine......luv the vids and keep it up👌👍

    We just put a standard kahein carb on the 2 liter polo engin with a 268 cam and 5 speed box but we could not get over 160 and yes the Weber is a difficult thing I'm thinking now of building a two door golf again not sure which engin and box yet

    honestly would have gone with a 2l 8v and 276 cam. might be a bit pricey but the power gain is just unmatched. another thing said is that you are very correct about the things breaking when you increase to power but its only if you didnt really maintain your car properly or allowed wear and tear to take over without frequent maintenance. anyway would love to still see whats coming in the future and whats planned for your golfy

      Hi there. Ace motor sports sells the carb and base plate. It is not a 36 DCD!!! It's a 32/36 weber carb if you are still interested look them up on the internet ask for Louis.

      Hi Charles!!! Have you changed all the parts to suit the 2.5 motor? Like air jets idle and fuel and venturi sleeves. If you did all that car shouldn't be to heavy on fuel. And should gain some good power. I'm not running the 36 DCD. Mine is the 32 /36 weber carburetor

    Dude, "breaking" things on any vehicle is down to your driving habits and maintenance regardless of the direction you take lol The long term benefits to be had with Fuel injection/ forced induction far outweigh the minimal gains of a carb setup
