mk2 16v turbo
« on: 08 February 2009, 23:51 »
I was just wondering how much these babies go for??  :huh:
i.e monetary value??

mk2 vr6 come up for sale along the £2.5 - 3k
mk2 20vt 1.8t along the £5k +

I came across one, original block bored down to 2litre with the UK turbo gear (apparantly the american ones are LHD only).

(and no i am not deserting my 4 door beast), did heathrow to leicester and back in 3 hours today, brought a smile back on my face! :evil:
On a different note, the m1 has come up quite nice i must say  :smiley:

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

really depends on the engine,   how well the engine has been built,  and how it drives

an 80's kjet turbo  16v   isnt really worth a lot,   there not fast enough to make them worth the hasstel anymore.

but one built from a diesel block with forged guts and big garret gt turbo. the engine chould be worth 5K on its own   drive well and deliver 600+bhp without relablity issues

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
