the tomcat engine is a heavy piece of shit, the audi engine on the other hand is an inch shorter than a k series and is not a bad unit.
i know the t16 are crap hate them engines with a passion
just had a metro and an engine so though we give it aao only problem we had was the oil filter wanted to go where the lower arm mounts and wouldnt even get an adaptor in there for a remote oil filter so scraped the car lol
but this is just amazing credit to you mate

i had a metro gti on twin webbers cams pulleys etc etc and that was a monster with them.
RS turbo killer
I guess that engine will not be a turbo then ??
What spec is it to make it 250 bhp.
though the non turbo's were 180??

did you not spot the actuator in the pics?
it's a 225hp tt engine and will run more boost and be on T2 management so 250hp should be conservative!!!
