Re: 16V upgrade opinions, please.

That is very good!

I'll be happy with 15 second range QTRs on my 8V.

But personally, I don't think of Sciroccos as muscle cars. Sciroccos are
first and foremost road cars. This is where Sciroccos leave most other
cars far behind.

I will probably take my car out to the drag strip once it's done - just
to see what kind of QTR mile it'll do.

Yeah the only other guy around here besides me with a scirocco that I can
talk to has his extremely fast scirocco.  He races it constantly, right
now his best is a 14.2, and he runs consistent 14.5's.
