Hi all,
Don't know if I posted this in the right spot, maybe it should be moved into specialist area?
This is a pie in the sky kind of idea, but how possible would it be to put a VR5 with a turbo into a 2011 Octy 1Z (MK2 + facelft)?
If it would be possible, which other parts would need to be updated to 'cope' with the upgrade? It's a stock 1.8T Wagon with 7-speed DSG.
I am of course completely inexperienced in any of this. My thoughts are:
2.3L VR5 + turbo
Guessing a custom ECU (would rock if stock Skoda/VW ECU would work)
AWD drivetrain
6DSG gearbox
Brakes
Exhaust - I want twin pipes.
Would suspension need modification?
Would like the in-car experience (ie all equipment functionality etc) to remain stock, ie no workarounds.
Should I forget the idea and get a pre-owned Superb Sportline in a couple of years?
Cheers,
tifkat
