I had a feeling when I was driving the mk4 donor that I was off a tooth. Motor ran fine but I was getting like low 20's for MPGs and the torque curve felt strange. Sure enough..... cams were behind a tooth. :banghead: Should make it run much more better :) New water pump and timing belt installed with new tensioner and pulley. The belt had been done (wrong) already, but I was not sure what was actually changed so I got my self some 20v insurance by just changing it all again and getting it properly timed.

Got the heatshield for tunnel back in and modified to clearence the 2nd O2 sensor. MK4 downpipe fits the MK2 pretty well.
