What is the best engine to drop into a MK2
I have a 1992 8v and I need it to go faster.
VR6 ?
4 Motion
1.8T Audi or VW ?

Let me know of any succesful conversions please.

Any harder or easier than others ?

My golf was a gti 16v when i had it.

First conversion was to a 9a with kr cams and 6 hours to do the conversion with good power increase.

Now i have just finished a 20vt done it myself and running 230bhp on k03s. Much better to drive than my old mk3 vr highline. Conversion was not that hard realy just got a couple of things to finish off. In total the conversion cost me £2500. I would say best conversion for the mk2.

Is that it!? Obviously the fact that you carried out the work yourself plays a huuuge part but I was still expecting a 20vt transplant to be mega bucks.


Hmmm now where did that credit card go...

20vt with a K04

That's cheap for a 20vt conversion, the only other cheap one I heard of was £3000, other than that they can run past £5000+!

i dropped a G60 into mine last weekend, cost around £1200 with a few extras. its digipants so plugs straight it pretty much, and its very similar to the 8v in shape and form making it simplish. i know 20vt are the in thing but i wanted G power

i know what you mean, somehow "supercharged" sounds better than "turbocharged"
