Hey Ryan

The exhaust side on the 1.8 head is really restrictive so a p&p would give you some nice hp. Shaving the head will give you some needed low end tq. $$$$

The exh mani on the 16v is pretty good so I would just order a race dp from tt. $

You definitely need a fuel module from tt. The non motronic 16vs (yours) run lean in the upper rpms.$

The Euro intake cam will give you about 7hp up top. Make sure to get the real Euro intake cam. The duration is 258 not 250. $$

Running a 83-84 GTi tranny will make a huge diffence in your acceleration. I would change the 5th gear or you will get shitty hwy gas milage. $$$
