225 TT Engine Swap into a Mk3

[P6UL K]

So.... Who's got one or done the conversion?

is it worth it? you can that sort of squirt out of a 1.8T

But the 225bhp is a 1.8t, better base to start from as opposed to the 150 aint it

im currently putting in a AUM 1.8t in. havent actually started yet. should get it going next week. still got a few things to sort out. if you can get a good deal on a 225, then go for it. you got the k04 then, ready to roll. decat, FMIC and the correct map will see you to 270bhp and similar torque stats.

im going to be using the 225 in mine, you can also use the 210 as they map to the same...

I think the big issue with 225 engines is their rarity and cost!! (earlier and better 150 engines are very cheap now)
