Keep the Webers, sound fantastic but they do need a bit of studying as to how they work and what does what and the best jet combo. Forget off the shelf jet set up guides, never worked for me.
Pros: sound fantastic
Cons: need studying, guides didn't work

Installed Weber tall studs for the velocity stacks, filters and linkage as well as Weber flathead screws to replace the JIS screws. My washer as a spacer/shim idea on the accelerator pump seems to be working. I have a symptom similar to the dreaded "flat/dead spot" of a mechanical advance only distributor, but it appears to fuel related during the idle to main switchover. I believe my idles are slightly too large and this causes a momentary over fueling on throttle. Made it on its first ethanol free Sheetz run with the new carbs without hiccup, the responsiveness compared to the factory dual 32/34 PDSIs is amazing.
Pros: amazing responsiveness
Cons: fuel related flat spot
I would 100% go 1.8, I have had 4 mk2’s with 1.8 and I got all of them running easy. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend going with the carb’Ed version. As all four of the 1.8 cars I have had major issues with the k-jet-tonic/cis-e system and the parts are nearly impossible to find, at least here in the states. And if you do find them they cost more than the engine. I run dual Weber 40 carbs which are worth the initial cost investment.
Pros: easy to get running
Cons: parts nearly impossible to find

I have a 32/36 on my cabby. They all need a heat shield between the intake and exhaust manifolds, but all functioned well.
Pros: functioned well

I have and run a weber 32/36 on a GTI JH motor in a caddy. Very reliable and plenty of power. I even run it with A/C. Everything is simple.
Pros: very reliable, plenty of power

I've switched the factory carb [76 Rabbit] to a dual Weber DCOE set up. Fun to drive but a lot to keep running well.
Pros: fun to drive
Cons: lot to keep running

I've run a Webber 32/36 on multiple 80s VWs, a Suzuki Samurai and a 280z they have been excellent and I would buy another one of the need comes up.
Pros: excellent, would buy again
