I found a nice Ashley 2.5 inch one from a MK2 GTI. It didn't take too much effort to change all the bends and I added a rubber hanger to allow the box to move a bit. Its quite short and its a straight through box so I think it will be quite loud. I managed to get most of that sorted in one day, then I moved on to mounting the fuel pump.

I added new rubber mounts and new filter, the mounting bars are just bent metal. Its a Golf MK2 8V Digifant fuel pump, with just the swirl pot. No accumulator like the 16V but this is plenty enough to stop fuel surge.

I quickly added a return spring to the accelerator pedal fashioned out of a spring from some garden loppers, just the job and gives the pedal a good feel.
I sent my ECU away to get the immobiliser deleted which hopefully will make the wiring a lot easier.
Unfortunately I forgot to take the OBD port from the Golf so I wont be able to talk to the ECU.
Recently started the wiring loom from the Golf engine, and started to separate and identify all the wires I need and don't need. I must admit I wasn't looking forward to this part but I did enjoy it after a while. I am currently still on the wiring and struggling to trigger the fuel pump relay.
Close but not quite ready to hear that exhaust note.
