Hey guys, got a question about rebuilding my motor in my 97 model GTI with the 717cc engine. The motor blew up about a week ago and I have it all torn down. My question is what should I do to get the most power out of it and yet be reliable too.
I have measured the cylinder walls and I got to get 83mm pistons. Due to the damage to the walls to clean them up.
What type pistons and from what company do you guys recommend for me to get?
Since I have to go so big on the pistons will I have to replace the jets in the carb? If so what size do you recommend.
Let me know what you guys would do. Thanks, Ted
