Default RS2000 I4 Engine,turboing options or cvh?

Hi, im stuck in deciding what to do to my car, either add a turbo to my I4 2000 lump with frst mangement, or just rip the whole lot out and install a frst engine and mangement,

its a mk5, so if i was to replaced with cvh, will everything line up eg engine mounts, also will the cvh bolt straight up to the mtx75 gearbox in my car, i would rather use the gearbox as i know there strong, would be cheaper to just cvh it really, but i kinda done the cvh thing with my rst, and the I4 engine feels smooth and strong and 16v

Turbo the 16 valve



If you are going to put a CVH in why not go the whole hog and fit a 100E side valve engine

i bet it cost u a fortune for that conversion though!,

so if i turbo my I4 lump, i need a manifold made up, a decent t3, frst mangement, and lower the compression a bit using a decomp plate.

what about injectors and things can these be used with frst management?
