Correct the Siemens shite with the 1.8 is truly awful. If your going down the route of upgrading all of that, id just put in a gti6 engine in. Whilst a GTI head/1.8 bottom setup would be good, it needs mapping which is expensive. Even if you use the gti ECU along with the head and manifolds, it will still over fuel.
