about as fast as my 1991 white sedici. no turbo.but BLOODY FAST!!!!.not seen another sedici like it.the day i sold that car,was horrid.as soon as it went down the street,i was gutted.the guy later,wrote it off i believekimi1984 said:
yes,the 5 cylinder has been done,and the coupe complete dash goes in too.ive heard though its not a good conversion.kimi1984 said:
the video car is def a 16v engine.
quite agree.the thing for speed gets me down sometimes.people spend so much time and money shoehorning engines,and then finding the car is crap to drive,take the punto 2.0 16v turbo conversion.the shell is not man enough for the job,and the car does not drive well at all.best to improve what you have already got or put in a next size engine like 1108 - 1242cc.or 1.4 - 1.6 say.horses for courses.kimi1984 said:

american spec cars i think.my old white 5door [Jreg],would eat golf's easily.even sorted a hard driven BMW 325 sport.standard car but very early one.1991 model which was reputed to make 155bhp.it was very quick.Trancendental said:The Tipo in the TipovsGolf vid didn't even look like it tried, furthermore on the other vids on the Tipo just driving with the cam on the speedo it started rattling but not a speed rattle, sounded like an engine rattle
Of course I am going to defend the Tipo, The 2.016v can beat a Golf GTI, maybe not easy but it can do.
