LIST OF PARTS NEEDED FOR 20VT INTO MK3 CONVERSION

[F17BAD]

Here is a basic list of what you will need to carry out the conversion into your beloved MK3

Iv not included prices as these vary.. but you are looking at a few thousand to do the job right.. or if you want me to price it up for you fitted into your car, send me a PM 

This list is based on, if you are starting out with a GTI 8V as the base car

Best to start with a 16v as you will have many of the parts already

If the base car is a VR6. You will need a 16v Gearbox and clocks

If you start with a lower spec car you will also need in addition to the below, brake upgrade to at least 280mm early GTI / VR6 spec and decent pads to suit

Also a map sensor and the fitting tube from somewhere like forge and if using the electronic pedal some sort of bracket will need making up

[F17BAD]

Yeah good point ill add this to the list...

you won't need the tube if you use the one that came with the engine as i did (but then i replaced with the forge one later due to relocation)

Nice post mate

[murraymint]

sticky? (as 1.8t convertions are getting more popular, and lots of questions being asks as to whats needed)

[danmusic24]

What about rad,can you use 8v one or do you have to use twin fan 16v 

[F17BAD]

You can just use the 8v GTI item

I used twin rad fan as the 16v car I used for some parts had one but it's not essential

I'll add it to the optional list tho all the same
