If its a Mk3 Polo then it wont fit.

Do a search and all your questions will be answered!

No.

Not without major work and money.

Few options for the mk3 though mate.

The easiest.

1.3 GT 75bhp

1.3 G40 Supercharged 113bhp

1.4 ABD with GT head and injection - Couple more bhp's then the GT but loads more torque

1.6 mk3 Golf/Polo/Skoda - 75bhp but best setup on GT injection - A well modded one with a engine work will be around 120bhp but theres a few things that need fabricating to get the engine in. So isnt the easiest but possibly the cheapest for the power you can get out of them if you can do the work yourself.

The mk4 16v engine fits too.

I'm doing the 1.6 conversion at the moment, should be a nippy fucker when its done, the GT engine is a good laugh around the country roads.

Aye ABD is easy to do mate. ABD is just the engine code

GT cam

GT ECU

GT Inlet

GT injectors

GT Throttle body

GT elbow & airbox or induction kit
