Yes I do... The car's good until 2001 I think. I'm looking for some way to 
keep it really cheap. That's the whole theme of this engine swap. 
(considering I got the entire Jetta for $350, and put about $400 worth of 
engine mounts, clutch and parts) into it, I'd say I'm ahead of the game.

yeah yeah.. I'm aware of the performance factor. heh.. Let's say I got 
myself a 16v Scirocco downpipe with a car from the junkyard, would I be able 
to bolt it up to my puny 8v midpipe?

>Any luck getting her running?

Not yet, but I think I'm getting somewhere.. I replaced a bad wire, and blew 
out Fuse #10! Now I just gotta figure out what caused that.
