Oh ok. You can buy from VW the electrical terminals if required.

The terminals, without the rest of the plug?  Any idea on price?

Yeah ;D depends on which piece you require. You can buy the terminal housing too. There is a whole catalogue on it.

Not really, they split it up into 2pin, 4pin, 6pin connectors and so on.

And Seriously Rough Paint.

Just outt interest why is the paint rough?

You will have a much improved car with modern electronic injection typ53, good on ya. Apart from being so much smoother and not as on off as k-jet is. Full electronics are so much more flexible to further improvements and mods. And the even better thing is you will get better fuel economy which if this car is a daily driver will pay for the whole thing in about a year or two.
K-jet was great. 20 years ago.

Thanks for the encouragement.  It sometimes seems a little daunting.

The best part of a dozen years sitting outside at airports hasn't been kind to the old girl, and the polishing required has worn away the clear coat in a number of places too.  That should be changing soon though.

Go to pickapart and get some injectors, a ECU and any other bits you might need for bugger all then fit them into a vw manifold and so on. Ask what would be the best car to get this stuff from but i would suggest a 1.6  corrolla AGE motor or a nissan pulsar/sentra 1.6 donk. You could even get the whole loom from the ecu forward.

Interesting idea.  I guess it works similar to KE-jetronic.  I wonder how much they want for their kit with the CAT included, and how tunable it is?

Orggti, thanks for the suggestion on parts, I have pretty much everything I need already (I hope).  Sourcing an ECU from a wreck is a good idea, alas I've already shelled out for mine.  Now it's down to time available. 

The most difficult thing to source appears to be finding a fuel rail that will fit - you can get threaded plastic fuel injector inserts from VAG that will fit the injector holes in the 16v manifold, but you need a long branch off the fuel rail to reach down between the intake runners.  Most likely one must be fabricated to fit. 

I have a modified Subaru one that fits inside the runners, but I'm not sure yet how it will perform. I'm concerned that it's a little too close to the head and all that heat.

most rails are quite close to the inlet and therefore the head i dont think that should matter. Is the ECU your going to use tuneable thro a laptop? I dont really know to much about how much you can do with the average jap car ECU, maybe you will need to link it all up to a aftermarket one as you will need to adjust it to suit what your car is doing. 

typ53

It's a Link, probably fairly basic when compared with OEM ECUs, but should do the job.  I have a hand controller to tune it with, and there is also the ability to tune it through PC software.
