I love mk1 Golfs. Only problem is they're so cool on the outside, so ugly on the inside.

why in that spec does it say the under piston cooling was removed?? seems a silly thing to do as oil spray bars are a safety device to stop you melting pistons...!!!? It doesnt make sense to run more boost but take them out...?!
