KS question


Brett's right Julie.  You'd only have this wire in the harness if your 
donor was an 85/early 86 Golf GTI or Jetta GLI (HT code engine.)  The wire 
was removed when the RD engine was introduced (this and the absence of the 
funky cutouts on the trailing cam lobes are the only differences between 
these engines IIRC.)  Any 16V CIS-E application already uses an optimal 
ignition map (presumably different from the 8V map as well, given the 
knock boxes are different.)
