Your 16v should have come with 100 mm axles, the trans and motor should
bolt up just fine, motor mounts being swapped and all. Engine management
is a different thing.

I have a A2 GTI in the backyard right now, why don't you stop by and we
can go over it in person?

btw- I have too many cars right now but I was still thinkin If you think
it's worth it I'd be happy to help get it back on the road with ya.
