Audi s4 2.7 tt engine or a 1.8t in a v6 4motion

[johnnyvr6]

hi I have just bought my v6 4mo and although I love the sound of my v6 I'm after something I can tune up as the v6 n/a are not very tunable which out of these would you say would be the best engine to put in my car

Get a audi s3 engine and box.

+1 on this  or turbo the v6

ok cheers I was thinking the 1.8t would be a cheaper option as been looking on the internet and seen the s4 engine is a nightmare to install,I'm not interested in turboing the v6 as it's meant to be really expensive,would I just need the engine mounts of the golf 1.8t or would I need to have them fabricated to get the engine to fit also is it worth spending 1k plus on a bam engine as my old 1.8t was an agu and was told this is the best engine just need k04 turbo as can by an early 1.8t mot failure for about 400 quid what do you think

[tweed]

Will still need s3 box.
And just need 1.8 mounts

ok cheers mate what about the 2.0t out of the new s3 my mate has this car and it's quick 265 standard would this go in my golf as these are going for about the same as bam engines

most engines can be made to fit its just the cost then having the wiring done to get it running  a think the s3 engine was mentioned as it already has a k04 the agu doesnt

Why not supercharge instead of Turbo? Slightly harder to find, but for a good used setup it'll cost you far less than a full 20vt setup, and you'll have better gains even on low boost with standard internals and with standard compression. You won't loose the noise either, and it'll be even better with the supercharger whine. Win win, win win...........

You can but its a complete ball ache and will cost a fortune in parts. You may as well get a 2.0t donor car. So if you saying turbo will cost too much then so will the 2.0t.

couple of ppl from here thinking of doing this now
