Doesn't the 2.0 have heads that were not used in other VW's too? They were probably driving it with those dinky 165 tires, which can't take full advantage of the weight distribution.

Nice little story though

I have an old set of front rotors that I just bead blasted to clean them up. Inside it said VW 411 070. I would think this was a 411 front rotor?
