Morghen, I love this idea.

It's only EFI, no spark?

Spark/timing control would be needed for FI applications ...

Hi all, what's the process to replace a roof skin? Want to get rid of the sunroof and go back to a hardtop. Thanks in advance.

Thanks all. I did end up getting a 2.5 at a great price, so going in that direction.

I do agree that (when I didn't have an engine) perhaps a 1.8 would have been a better solution ... or a K24.

Yes, I am in a similar boat, and OS pistons are (virtually) unobtainium.

Any piston intended for a forced induction application is likely to result in a lower compression ratio - not what you want ...

Thanks Cedric.

How do engine mounts differ between the two cars?

Will the 924 NA sump clash with the 944 crossmember?

Can I "de-power" the 944 steering rack?

Would I use a 924 c ...

OK, this request might seem a bit weird, but hear me out.

1. I have a complete 2.0 NA engine sitting in the engine stand.

2. I can get hold of a 944 complete (minus engine) in horrid shape.

Another old thread resurrection.

Step one for 91 Passat brakes seems to have passed. The bolt hole measurements are the same as the original post. Will compare to the actual car now.

Any pair of "matched" 944 sway bars gives a noticeable improvement in roll, cornering and turn-in (the 944 was such a heavier car). These beneits at the expense of (some) suspension complian ...

The NA 924 is a great place to start. They are so simple.

The NA engine does respond to turbocharging very well, but you'll need to do an EFI conversion first.

That's the way i'd go, if I had yo ...
