Denso Spark plug

I'd opt for a set of 1 step colder plugs. Ideally non projected tip like [Denso 5749](https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-spark-plug-denso-5749) or [NGK 4905](https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-spark-plug-ngk-r74388). Though these are costly.

Pros: non projected tip
Cons: can be costly
Mileage: 15000 km
Part number: 5749

Rating 5.0

I would 100% go 1.8, I have had 4 mk2’s with 1.8 and I got all of them running easy. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend going with the carb’Ed version. As all four of the 1.8 cars I have had major issues with the k-jet-tonic/cis-e system and the parts are nearly impossible to find, at least here in the states. And if you do find them they cost more than the engine. I run dual Weber 40 carbs which are worth the initial cost investment.

Pros: easy to get running
Cons: parts nearly impossible to find
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

KONI Shock absorbers

  • Body bounce:
Rating 4.5

I've been running stock springs with Koni Special Actives and an 034 rear sway bar on the softer setting. The Koni's have been perfect for my goals, but I do wish for slightly stiffer springs.

Pros: perfect for my goals
Cons: wish for stiffer springs

Bilstein Shock absorbers
Belthasar
  • Body bounce:
Rating 4.0

The Golf R springs with Bilstein B6 dampers did moderately lower the wagon's body roll and, paradoxically, not really negatively affect ride quality from what I can tell.

Pros: lower body roll
Cons: turn in isn't as sharp
Mileage: 53000 km
