Mk1 Golf GTi

Mk3 GTi 2.0 16v engine 150bhp

Twin Carbs/ or Throttle Bodies

Potential 190bhp+

Weighs less than a nova.

I'd spend the money on tyres, brakes and insurance for the Evo.

Not really wanting to track the evo tbh - don't mind a few days but brakes/tyres will become expensive as will bouncing off walls etc fancy something cheap/cheerful

e30's make good track day cars, 325is can easily be made to match/beat the performance of an m3 and once stripped out and got a 3.0 z3 lump in they become seriously quick,if your after a hot hatch then mi16 205 on carbs all the way
