I would also highly recommend that you get the charger rebuilt BEFORE you
put it on another car. Those chargers are good chargers when they work, but
if you don't rebuild them on schedule, they will detonate. I'm talking
chunks of aluminum and ugly noises.

A good rebuildable core (presumably like you have) is worth as much as
$600USD on the Vortex or EBay. Plan on spending at least $650USD to do a
basic rebuild on it. I'm spending $1400 for a fully ported, performance
rebuild on my supercharger from oRz Motorsport, including a different pully,
different syncro belts, etc. You can easily spend more!

Bottom line: G60 tuning is NOT cheap! You have been warned.

A G60 16V is a very complicated build. Read As:Expensive. There is a whole
gallery on my page devoted to 16V and 20V G60s. It is not a slap and go
swap. Most of the stuff you will to do for a turbo also applies here. As
well as lots of bracketry work if you dont feel like paying a fortune for
the stock 16V G60 brackets from VW motorsport. 

The stock 16V G60 uses a flavor of Digifant that shouldnt be hard to find
though. Ive seen dyno charts for these motors on the high side of 230whp.

          Hey Guy.  Im doing a 8V to 16V conversion this summer.  So far I
have a 1.8L head P&P.  I have all wiring computer fuel systems etc.  I am
looking for a 2.0L block now.  What else will I need to do this swap?  I
heard somone say I need a 16V fuel pump relay and 16V fuel lines.  ????  I
got a G-60 charger of my friend for 40 bucks cdn.  This needs a rebuild.  If
I just put it on without rebuild till summer would it work a bit?  What else
do I need to hook up the charger to my 16V.  I dont have any of the pipes.
Also are there rebuild kits out there for the DIY ers?  

Thanks a lot guys. 

 Tory Brown
