Easy one: Use the Digifant from the last 16V GTIs (2-litre) built in
Europe.

If you plan to use one from an 8V engine, then you have to find
somebody who can re-program the thing. It's not exactly
straight-forward; and depending on the vintage, it could be a
Motorola chip doing the fuel injection, and an Intel chip doing the
ignition. :-(

Air flow metering shoul be done by air-mass meter; the flap meter
from an 8V will top out well before the 16V runs out of steam.
