There are a few autocrossers here at least, and lots of good info.  I
autocross a DSP 84 GTI, which is largely similar to your car.

FYI: the oversized TB is illegal in ITC.  So is porting the intake(does'nt
say you are going to).  If you are asking for both with intentions to use
the tb in DSP, don't forget that the rules say that you can run an IT car
in DSP *provided* it is fully legal under IT rules - DSP requires an
interior, IT requires stock intake tract.  Other than that, it looks like
you're going to wind up with a decent IT car!  I am not trying to be a
jerk, just don't want you to spend money for nothing.....I did, in the form
of a cam.  Bummer.   Best of luck!

What size are you looking for?  A friend might have an H&R.....think it is
28mm.  I'll check.
