Re: G60-16V Golf Rallye Info (cited)

[Leo Almeida <scirvw16vleo@yahoo.com>]

I too have a dream of having a supercharger on my 1.8 16v Roc. And yes it is possible!

Tim of New Dimensions is willing to do an R & D on my car as soon as I am ready for the cost.4 to 6k ballpark figure and I am considering it. Maybe if we could do this as a group it might bring the cost down. or should I just get a 2.0 ?? any advise.............Leo

ok here is a bit of info for you guys since i past this topic and i have
spoken with someone who owns this car the limited 16v_ g-60 there is one
in california as we speak it is a fast ass car form teh guy i spoke to his
name is duncan i do not want to give out his lat name just because i
didnotask him to talk about this car, he also purcahsed a rallye golf for a
spare car, the only problem he is encountering withteh g-60 16v, is that the
vin number form vw motorsports is only 9 digits i believe, so teh DMV is
having a hard time believeing that such a recent car has suck a low number
but anyway, soem more info for you if you are wone of th lucky ones that
gets to own one of these 72 beast, you get a complete parts listing ( which
is a booklet ) that gives you all part numbers for the vw and vw motorsports
parts for the car, it is a truely ammazing ar, it uses teh front mount
intercooler fromteh rallye golf and also mounted teh alternator inteh rear,
if anyone has other qquestion klet me know i willtry to answer them for you
as best i can .

Taken from the Illustrated Volkswagen Buyers Guide by Peter Vack ©1993:

"The G60 supercharger was applied to the normal eight-valve head, and it
didn't take long before VW Motorsports adapted the G60 to the 16V head.
According to Ian Kuah in his book VW Power and Style, seventy Golf G60
16Vs were produced by the Brussels, Belgium plant, making it the
'fastest production road car ever to have left any VW plant destined for
a private customer.' The G60 16V was not shipped to the United States,
of course, but ironically put out 210hp DIN and was in full compliance
with US emissions regulations."
