Jetta Mk1

Hello, its my first post here but I hope its right place for some help.

For a start I´ll intoduce my car.

Its ´82 vw jetta with 2.9  140kw engine. Its self made syncro, It has some cheap coilovers. Ive lightened it and now it weights about 990kg
best ET is 13,7 @ 157km/h with 2,0 60 ft.






few days ago I started relocating the cooling radiator all my friends told me not to do it but I still started. Just hope to get some weight off the front nose. Main reason is the space in the front of the engine. I have an idea of ITBs and maybe Im going to use the free space for these on one day...

Its not finished yet:


Sorry because of my bad english. Im from Estonia


I have some problems too:
It has really rich mixtore....about 10-11 @ WOT  Is it normal with stock ecu? with 13,0-13,3 : 1 AFR  it would be more powerful.
And second problem is with rev limiter. With neutral its higher than 8000 RPM, with 1st gear it spins to 7500 RPM, with 2nd gear it goes up to 7000RPM  with 3rd it spins to 6500 but with higher gears its not good for the speed when I have to shift @ 6000.  How it can be so :S  top speed is lower than it should be. It looses its power with 5th gear@ 5500 but its only 200km/h

Could anybody tell me which are the most tighter ITB´s....intake ports are so god deam close to each other.
Or have anybody installed 3+3 ITBs...I mean 3 tu upper row and 3 longer ones to lower?

Might be worth giving Jenvey a message, they sell ITB kits and might be able to point you in the right direction
