i want £700 for everything this include 02J gearbox, and even the shifter cables etc all ancillaries, looms, ECU, downpipe etc etc

it has the K03S turbo too so its good for around 230bhp with a map

I race karts on weekend any my kart makes a new Nissan gtr feel slow on track, so I have no reason for wanting a fast car.

I would buy a fast car to start with if I did.

The sound is what I'm after. Ever heard a 2.8 v6 rev up to 7500rpm?

Much better than a 4banger turbo

hear it quite often yeah.. does noting for me personally. more bothered about the technology behind it over the noise but we all like different things  :wink:

However:

You should try a highly tuned 18T with a RS2 Turbo, and wastegate externally dumping past 7.5k then u will see the addiction  :grin:

sounds nothing like a normal 1.8T even on normal driving

anyhow, back to engine i have:

Engine is AGU bottom end with a AUM head recently replaced (1000 miles) runs absolutly perfection

here it is from a cold start:

This argument always annoys me!

Just to make it straight they are both great engines! And I'm a VR6 man all day long but when people keep going on that the 1.8T is miles better thts what gets me!

The sound of a VR is great and thats from a standard engine! Highly tuned 1.8? Yea I'm sure it does sound the boy but I'm also sure it'll cost a fair wack as well!

The only advice I'd give is it's totally down to personal taste! It'll never be won or lost otherwise!

VR6 = easy cheap power and don't forget you can get silly power from them to if your pockets are deep enough! Ideal for first time engine swaps ect

1.8T = great power and  boosts for more power but from what I can gather it'll cost a load more in the long run! Need to be abit more of an expert on these or have someone around tht knows what there doing!
