I have used a single mass flywheel with a 215mm friction plate fro a 2.0 mk4 golf which fits in side the jx bellhousung.
On the turbo side I have used an epytec tdi mount and made a mount for the other side.
At present I have used syncro engine bars but its not going to clear the hatch so some more head scratching needed.

It looks truly great. Did you get all of those details in the used car? I'm not quite sure is it profitable enough to purchase a new car, if you can simply replace something that you need, by getting those details from the used car. I could even find a source which seems to be one of the most visited nowadays. Do you know something about this site?

Thanks. Has not been driven that much but it is a real hoot to drive. Bundles of power smooth. refined and quiet. Would while heartedly recommend the 1.8t.
