Timing Belt slippage - What to do?!

[madpugger]

Cool cheers mate, just called GSF for a head set (£67.75) and while I was on phone asked for price of alternator which I remembered was a good few hundred quid, it was £149 so may just get a new one...

Anyone got the OE part number? Mine is only an 80 odd Amp one so I can't get the number from that.

gaskets -QC
arp - summit racin
scats - boostfactory
wagner - wagner
shells - audi
cams - aby will suffice and no loss of low end.
turbo - a personal choice.
clutch(sachs) teppo kalske

chain sprockets are rounded on audi. the are round on 16v vw after about 89. the spiked teeth are on 16v kr engine and usually make the chain rattle.

keep the inlet valves stock. work around the exhaust ports if you are doing stuff.
