        You'll need to trim the solenoid, and cut semi-lateral grooves in the hypercoil rotator, but other then that, they should bolt right in. Make sure to use grade-3 snaprings and lock perches. Also, make sure the mating surfaces of the centrifugal pulleys are aligned with the neutral tubes.

          I agree with your signature.

          "BUILD IT< BRAKE IT<FIX IT "

          "Build it": Put MK4 Jetta springs on an e30
          "Brake it": Hit the brakes to put your automatic transmission back in 'Park' after you realize the eta does not have enough power to move the car forward with the chassis resting on the ground?
          "Fix it": Reinstall e30 springs

                Do you have one of those huge 15hp Monster energy drink stickers? I hear it's similar to putting a cone filter in and tossing that restrictive airbox. Lots of power.
