HI I AM CURRENTLY BUILDING A 2.0 LITER AUDI BLOCK WITH A 1.8L GTI HEAD. I AM LOOKING FOR ANY INFORMATION ON WHAT I HAVE TO SWAP AND MODIFY. ALSO WONDERING IF I CAN ELIMINATE THE WIRING IN THE CAR, BECAUSE I AM MAKING THIS A RACE CAR FOR OVAL TRACK. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I can tell that the stock head will not stand much
and if you want to run high turbo boost is't good to put over 83mm piston
And please tell if you did this and worked

need a little more info...I race a 82 VW Rabbit Truck 1.8L.  I run a stock head with no problems.  Last year compression was 12:1 going to 14:1 this year 270 duration .440 lift.  Turning 7000 rpm.  Have a Holley 500 with 80 jets, running 110 octane Sunoco, MSD ignition, SACHS 3-puck unsprung racing clutch, flywheel cut down to 9#, balanced, port & polished, with straight open headers...all this on a 1/4 asphalt oval 15 degree banked track...As far as having to switch anything...not at all...I am looking for a 2.0 to use my current head on.  As far as the wiring, get rid of it...hope this helps.
