Re: 2.1 Liter 16v how to? Anyone done this? Would you help a brother out!

[Anthony Pelletier <vwnuts@yahoo.com>]

I haven't done this but heres whatcha need
95.5mm crank(from TDi) and 84 mm pistons.  You will need to change you
crank weather you go 2.0 or 2.1.  The only way you can get 84mm pistons
is to get forged.  
AT work gotta go
