If you want cheap, cheerful & fragile then use a standard 4 cylinder (20/21)set up, this will cost a lot less to replace than any other system when it breaks, and it will break, a slight improvement would be with an early Rally (ASU Code)gearbox as this has a cast iron transfer box casing instead of the aluminium one, all the systems mentioned above will break at this power level with the exception of the Haldex.

You took the words right out of my mouth [

this may also help http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/data/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1653Im sorry, but Unless I had one on its own I wouldnt split a transfer box from a transmission either, especially not a rare & expensive VR6 one, it just doesnt make financial sense they are worth more together than apart.
Q) Which angle drive is the right for these situations?
A) Either will do and both will break, But for a variety of reasons (Availability and cost among others) I personally would prefer the 20/21 ratio, whichever ratio you fit you will of course need the matching rear differential to suit the angle drive
In a word — ‘Neither’ — You really need Haldex to Perform at this sort of level (450 whp GOLF in drag strip) as you would be forever breaking things on the Syncro system, and as you uprated one part you would just expose the next weakest, and so on ad infinitum, well almost, as you would reach a level where it was not possible to uprate anything any further, and you would still be having failures.

I like to think that sooner or later everyone will be, you just have to make it that bit easier for them, []
and If there was “money growing on trees & rivers flowing with beer” then I really wouldn’t get anything done.

I would be very interested to have a look under one of these, with a view to lowering it to a normal ride hight and then replacing all the nonsense body panels with standard VW Golf 1 or 2 items, you could possibly make a nice (stiff? ha ha) Almost Factory Syncro Cabby or Cabby Syncro depending on which way you looked at it [8D]Well you do have to laugh sometimes when you get an request for membership like this
