I have both 8v and 16v Sciroccos in my garage and
so I can objectively say , that the 16v is the better
and more sophisticated engine in a Scirocco.
Especially when compared to the weak 95HP JH engine.
The 112 HP 8v DX engine is better, but usually not available in the USA.



I think your DX engine is basically like our RD motor, but with a different
cam. That's no big deal though.

I hope not to have offended anyone with this statement
as always it is only IMHO...
