edition 30 engine components are 99% all the same.  course there are a few differences here and there. fairly confident the chain system would be the same though

Cheers for that  :happy2:

Just ordered the Parts with VW TPS and the Ed30 must be diffrent to the standard GTI as the parts where alot more expensive and also not as much was required,

Chain - £58
Tensioner - £88.12

Prices have just gone up a lot recently, that's all.  They are the same parts on GTI & ED30  :smiley:

You will still need the gaskets etc and definitely the cam adjuster bolt as it's a one time use job.
