1995 2.0 Golf Cabriolet Engine Conversion
« on: 03 September 2011, 13:13 »
Looking at getting a conversion as i've now saved up enough for one and a re spray.
What would be the best/easiest engine to put into my baby?
My mechanic friend is helping me out so cost shouldn't be too bad.
Just needed some advice? as i want some more power but don't want to have to do too much work!
thanks in advance

Vr6 is the best choice, easy to do and sounds awesome.
