regards the engine, i am tempted, but unsure on costs, as it would stand me at quite a bit by the time a turbo and management, manifolds went on, compared to the 1.8T conversion i am swaying more towards.
Humm yeh the 1.8T is another good conversion. Views seem to be divided on which is better, when u scan through the VW forums.

I just know the 1.8 can be very expensive to tune up, where as the VR6 is a lot more simple, and being such a solid engine can take the extra punishment of forced induction well!
