S3 bam into mk4 4motion
« on: 15 February 2013, 17:23 »
hi all its been a while but im back :smiley:

has anyone come across and detailed build threads on an s3 engine into a mk4 4motion
i have done searching etc and it hasnt really bought up much thats worth a read..
i know the engine and box fits straight in to the mk4,
im after the sort of knowledge like how much of a pain in the arse with matching the s3 loom to the mk4 and reprograming the
ecu to match the mk4 clocks immobolizer etc etc.

many thanks
james

Don't see the point in putting an s3 engine in to a 4mo though add it all up you could get a second hand charger cheap enough if u can do the work ure self wouldn't be as bad baz surely
