Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

        Damn, that would be a good bit of fun...

        So this is the same engine from the Polo GTI?

        Seems like good power delivery guess the upgraded fulp pumps and a lot of custom intake / exhaust work provide the extra power over the 1.8T with remap?

            Who the hell is going to buy it?

            Everyone who wants it can't afford it and everyone who can afford it buys a mk5.

                How much would it have cost you to put in a 1.8T?

                  I'm interested to know this as well. I'd much prefer to do a 1.8t conversion on my mk2 rather than buying a new car.

                    The cost of a 20VT conversion has been discussed a number of times on the forum. have a search for some more in depth discussions. From memory it was about 20K for a complete package. [inc susp brakes etc]

                    Putting a 20VT in isn't the hard part, it's everything else that needs doing to make it all work.

                      well worth the money! heaps of time has gone into this car
                      worth noting the motor was brand spankers when bought!
                      i want it too... such a nice car

                      just add that it seems a bit harsh for certain people to be bagging others they have never met, especially since WE ALL share a common interest in our vw's!

                        the car is a bargain at the price its being offered I reckon.

                        And yes it would be nice if everyone could just get along. But it doesnt seem to be possible.
