TheSamba.com :: View topic - Looking for ABA Engine swap parts...Anyone??

Wed Nov 16, 2005 12:23 am

I’m trying to finish up my parts list needed to do an ABA swap in an A1 GTI. The main thing I’m looking for right now is a knock sensing ignition out of a A2 GTI or GLI. Basically I need all the sensors and module along with the wires connecting everything. I would appreciate any ideas or comments on where to find what I need and some experience doing it. I'm trying to keep it in my budget and have a pretty good idea how much it should cost me. If anyone has the distributor adapter ring and block off plate from Techtonics I'm interested in those too.

Thanks!!
