Ok...so what exactly are the OEM lightweight lifter that fit in my 16V ??
From what i heard... its the MK4 2.0 L one...but from what year ???2000-01-02 ??? or it make no difference ?
Also my dad work at an autoshop...so i should be able to weight different "jobber" one
Whats the weight of a stock 16V one ??
And just like that...with Autotech Sport Cam and their HD valve spring...would this be good...or usuless ?

mk4 2.0 8v lifter works, no matter what year.
I don't know if we should weight a empty of full lifter... i guess the weight is from an empty one but who has an empty lifter on hand ???

Re: Lightweight lifter !!! (16vMax)

if the oil volumes of the lightweight lifters are greater than the weight savings is less

its an icing on the cake mod, after you have gotten your motor able and worth reving past 7500 rpm.

the only reason i got it was because it was pretty much the same price as regular lifters.... cant hurt right?
