1.8T 20v Engine Conversion question

[LazyLunatic]

just do over a say a year and budget yourself each month. Do a little bit every now and then and make sure you research! Then research more! I spent more than needed as i bought a lot of stuff i didnt need or i bought the wrong thing!

Its not a dream, you can do it if i can afford it! By the sounds of your previous cars, i guess your insurance shouldnt be a problem like mine is lol.

if you research it and talk to people that have done the conversion, then you can make a list of every part you will need and prices of it all. I did A LOT of research and i wish i had done more cause it wasnt enough!

Exactly what I'm doing

If you have the space just store the car and go and do bits every so often.

An AGU 1.8t with loom, ecu, turbo and clocks are about 600 - 700 on ebay

With the qpeng its £800 standard but then you need a downpipe and so on.

But overtime the cost will be spread out

Again back to "i dont have the capability to do the conversion myself". I need someone (A Company like The Phirm) to be able to do the whole lot for me but the costs quoted on their website £2500 +vat Labour only and then you need the engine ....etc
