LIST OF PARTS NEEDED FOR 20VT INTO MK3 CONVERSION

[danmusic24]

what would be the order of fit? ie old engine out,remove this remove that so on so on....
would you fit new lump then plumb in new loom or the other way round?
just a basic guide on how you approach things...
ps what size wheels do you have on that monster of yours

I can't give away all my secrets haha
but in a nutshell

Remove old engine

Fit brakets to new engine (where applicable)

fit Gearbox and new clutch kits etc (including bracket) to engine

wack engine in bay

Plumb in the wiring on the engine

plumb in the wiring to the fuse board to ECU


My rims are 8" x 16"

where would you get the immob defeat brad ?

I know a guy that can do it mate. if you get stuck i can get the details for you 

[kylepeo]

thinking/looking into this conversion cos im getting sick of the abf gremlins and looks like lots on the list come from a 16v so i have perfect starting base

just want to look about get as much info as i can look into various options and cost

then  think do i stick with the abf engine or ??

[F17BAD]

id get rid of ABF mate.. i just don't find them quick at all, infac ti found little difference between the 16v i had and he 8v engine that used to be in mine

but its gonna cost you a fair amount to do a 1.8T conversion (properly)

worth it tho

Likewise, I'm so bored of my ABF lump now.

[kylepeo]

the real question is what engine i know brad is gonna say s3 because thats what he has but what engine would be a good option agu,aum,.....??

[F17BAD]

TBH you don't need as much power as the S3 lump

AGU or AUM is fine

Or the Auq with its 180 bhp, (same engine as above basically but with a different standard map - once mapped they are all about the same)

AGU only has K03 so upgrade that tp the K03s and remap it and you will have over 200bhp and believe me it will fly and you will smile all day

So yea any of the above codes are good and readily available and don't brake the ££££££ like the S3 lumps do..

Its not about the BHP, its all about the torque

Its not about the BHP, its all about the torque

Until you mashup your clutch like i did :/

What torque can the VR6 clutch handle ?
