"rocket" is the name for a oldsmobile engine. actually a 455 rocket to be correct.

The only thing I can think of is maybe it is "performance Built"? Maybe has upgraded internals or something....

I dont know

Expert advise would be greatly appreciated

:rofl: :rofl: hes probably just using it as an adjective to describe the engine... there is no such thing as a rocket engine in a VW

It means he probably has this under the hood:

.... seriously though, what do you think it means? He's probably just saying it's fast.

Pocket Rocket maybe? That was a phrase often coined to the GTI VW's of the 80's.

Cam from RWS Tuning in Saskatchewan manaded to drop a 32V Northstar V8 into a MK2 Golf this year, thats the only V8 MK2 VW I know of.

In the forefront though, I think you just got OWNED by whoever said that tho...
