putting in a 1.8 from jetta to mk2 sci



Had I friend put one in a Golf GTI.  The hardest part was the electrical
stuff.  I think he paid $600 for a black box to convert the digital tach
signal from the computer to an analog signal to get it to work.  I would
have just taken the instruments from the donor car myself.
