    Hey all, I recently bought a really tidy mk3 16v 2.0l 4 door GTI and I have thought about doing an engine swap. I was thinking something turbo or maybe a ls1 as that would also fit fairly easy.
    what have you guys done??

    otherwise with my stock engine what could I do?
    would it handle a turbo?

    Exhaust mods, tips, what have you done?

    Just turbo the ABF, have a google. It’s not cheap sadly :(

    I’m sure others will chime in with some mega detail

    if its all freshly put together often it'll sit a little higher. give it a bit and it will usually drop down

    once you have a few more posts you can uplad direct to the forum, until thewn you could use 3rd party host and hotlink though that can be tricky
