keep 16v or buy vr6

Are you going to arrest Len when you become a copper? 

Despite him being a bit petty, im sure hes not that bad, that he deserves to be arrested.

Everyone is equal, and gets the same treatment, i dont hold grudges because he dont appriciate me. lol

Although i suppose those blue rear lights should have him hung at the towers!! haha.

What amazes me is why there is so much anti vr6 feeling on this forum?

Can't say as I have any real "anti VR6" feeling, each to their own in my book. That said, I was never totally convinced by those early V6s. They're just a bit too smooth and unstressed, made the whole experience seem a bit detached. Also, from an engineering perspective, they were pretty inefficient. About 62bhp/litre compared to a 16v four's 75bhp/litre. Admittedly VW addressed a lot of these issues with the later multi-valve sixes but they don't come in Mk.3s unless you put 'em there!

12v vr's are easily tuned. But when they are, they drink fuel, maybe that explains why they are detuned from factory.

Other side of the coin is, if you have money to trash a VR6. Buy a mk4 R32.

Are people anti R32 on here to?

I would do a lot for an R32. Watch this space, im gettin in the position to pull of a Mk3 R32, bit of banter

I did fancy an R32 last year, but it was cheaper to buy the Audi.
More power and more toys 
Well it is basically 2 ABF engines stuck together

ummm  ok a proper question 

would you rather have a 32 valve 4.0 v8 in the frount or 1 abf in the frount and another in the boot ?

[Mikester]

Would the 32valve be running syncro?
