The info is already out there.. tfsi or random 2.0 8v crank (i think it's azj) with drive gear from a seat and appropriate pistons. Stroker kits have been around forever and aren't the best way to increase engine capacity in F.I applications.

As above a longer stroke is not always the best set up in a Turbo

lol  :grin:... o.k i am being lazy, no doubt about that.. more to the point its finding the time to look..
will gather some info somtime soon for others too look at.. and though you say stroking isnt the best way to look for power, what about combined with other mods like bigger turbo, injctors, map, fuel pump, fpr, ect ect????.

tbh I thought I was clicking on a link to some engine porn  :sad:
Passat B5.5 2.3 V5 170, with all the extras.

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

Here are a pair of links, just to wet the pallette.  I can find more relevant and informative discussions later.  It's 3:30am and I need my vitamin Zzzs.
