Well i visited samco this morning for them to help me sort out what bits i need for the next lot.

It seems the golf mk4 coolant kit is very similar to the ibiza in a few parts. So i should find out later if theyre goin to be ok to use.

Ahh, i'm wondering then why, in the ibiza tip thread, forge or jsb say there isnt one to fit the ayo engine.
I know you have to modify a golf one too fit, but which one would we need to order?
Just trying to clear things up in my mind, Dave

Cheers

Tom i think it would be the AUQ or AUM engine codes which we need

these are both Golf codes i think where as some of the others in the drop down box on forges site are from bora, a3 etc

can anyone clarify exactly wot modifications are required??

i know theres a port which needs to be blanked but is there any cutting required? or is that it
