sounds good. if you look in the forced induction classifieds there is usually a new set of VR rods or pistons for sale for a good price.

> damn your valve keepers are fail too?! I had to make sure when building my motor that I had gotten the correct PRB 02-03.5 K series valve keepers to avoid the fail Brian Crower came across with his stage 2 cams back in '05 when using '05 valve keepers. 60 miles + dropping a valve = FAIL!

oem VW keepers are dual groove, they usually hold well. exhaust valves on the 1.8ts are known to break. i got extremely lucky because if a valve dropped, good bye EVERYTHING. people have even had Supertech single groover keeper failures. when it comes time to do valvetrain, Ferrera all the way, i dont care if they are 35 a valve instead of 20. its worth it to me.
