Re: Fit ABS to a Sciroco?

[16v Jason <jason@scirocco.org>]

Remember, of course, that the A2 Jetta GLI 16Vs came with ABS and the 1.8..
and since so much of the driveline and brake system is shared, it really
shouldn't be that much of a problem to do the install... except, of course,
finding room for the ABS pump under the hood...  I would love to do this
mod.  Unfortunately time and money are at a minimum these days... but if
you're brave enough to try it, I'd love you forever if you could take pix
as you go and drum up a HOW-TO site. :)
