I wanted to do this with an Audi s2 but they were far too expensive to chop about so go for it.

Didn't buy the quatto... couldn't justif braking a good car! :-(

...but I have got a 16v/v coming my way in the near future!

no do I stick it in the rocco or the golf? (tempted by the rocc way, but its a carbed GT2 atm and so sorting the wiring will be fun!)

Sticking the wiring in is nothing to worry about. I converted a carb car and the wiring took all of about 15 minutes to sort (providing you have the loom from a golf at hand).

16vs are the future, especially when they're 2.1ls with stage 2 cams.
