Not really sure what the current output of my dx is,with the few mods i have done,but i am quite impressed with the way it goes,and that is with just me tuning it on my drive.
What I wanna know is how will my 9a / kr combo compare ? Plan is new bearings,rings,hone,skim head,new guides,port,kr cams going to use 16v k-jet to start with,and rig the 5th injector up to throttle switch.
How much more omph will it have?
How much better will my 9a be ?

Re: How much better will my 9a be ?
I'm expecting about 165-170bhp from my 9a engine when i get round to fitting it, thats with KR cams, 4-1 manifold and full exhaust, Kjet, and a pipercross filter. I expect yours will be similar MrD.
I went out in the car a year ago before the owner blew the gearbox and it pulled alot better than any other 16v golf I have been in.
