so everyone knows that the t belts on the 1.8t engines suck balls and at some point are gonna fail when you least expect it. now the reality of it for me is that i have no compression in any of my 4 cylinders after i replaced the timing belt (i figured shit would be messed up considering it went while cruising about 60 on the highway). at this point i still dont know the extent of the damage to the valves of pistons bc i havent taken the head off yet but at this point im already prepared for the worst. my plan is to bore the engine out and throw in some je pistons and aftermarket valves, with that said the only thing in my way is the lack of knowledge on a car like this as far as what parts i'd need to replace altogether and how i should have my mechanic do this for me.... ugh, some ideas anyone??
