guess it depends what you are trying to achieve. engine swap type stuff costs a lorra lorra ?, tidying up your car is probably cheapest, or like you say give up and buy another one... like this one:

Hi Stu, Is the engine ok?  If it ain't broke don't fix it ;)

Just treat yourself to a nice set of Ronal Turbos. They look cool on small bumper GTI's ;D
