thats the only plug that looks like that, it was looser than all the rest of the plugs im guessing thats why it broke.

how much are stock injectors?

You arent running your engine anymore, right?
Get a pic of your injectors while your at it so we can determine if they are stock or not. Did your car come with the GIAC chip, or did you get that after you bought it?

Are you able to contact the original owner? Those don't look stock, at all. I'd be surprised if someone put in big injectors without a bigger turbo or at least a tuned ECU. Your turbo is a stock k03 right? Did you notice a big improvement when you got chipped? Is your fuel pressure regulator stock?

The timing mark is on the valve cover, if you don't wanna mess with the timing just use some channel locks and clamp the belt to the cam sprocket, remove the cam sprocket from the head and use a bungee cord to hold it against the radiator. This will eliminate a few hours of work.
