    1998 volkswagen head swap

    i have a 1998 volkswagen 2.0 with a neuspeed supercharger, but i'm looking to swap the 8 valve head for a 16 valve gti head. I was wondering if anybody has done this or has any advice. I don't know if this swap is even possible so any help would be appreciated

    Re: 1998 volkswagen head swap

    Im pretty sure this might have been attempted but Im not positive. I myself was lookin into doing the same back when I had my Beetle but ended up selling the car. Your best bet is to search on Vortex for some info, should be there somewhere and those guys should be able to to point you in the right direction.
