v5 mk2
« on: 19 April 2004, 20:45 »
Hi how are  ;)

I want to do an engine swap at some point(money pending).

Hey, unless you have the skill to do the job yourself it's the old time and money thing  ;)

There's no reason against doing either, the V5 would be a lot of money for not that big a gain, a 20vt swap would prob cost the same but you would have huge potential afterwards.

the tdi is an interesting idea :)

I wouldn't mind a TDi based on the torque and MPG, but just can't live with the agricultural sound and that puff of black smoke when you boot it.  ;D
