Engine conversions like 16v/VR6 are pointless imo, because it's too much work and sometimes more expensive, than just buying a complete car, lol

If you are bored, do a 1.8T conversion.

My other and more sensible option was to change the camshaft, Any recomendations for which cam will be best for road use? And how hard wil it be to change? Thanks guys.

Is that where you learned to be a boring tw*t?
Or does that come naturally?
