GL to VR6

[thestu]

Yep I agree too, easier, probably less expensive in the long run (think of maintenance of VR6's at their age lol) and that sound...

plus you could tune and tweak the hell out of it once it's in for even more power!

very very true!!!

be different go turbo

turbo parts for a 2.0l non cross flow head? if anyone wants to hook me up with some parts ill build it =] atm got 2g to spend thanks to the government haha. for starters prob do the head, thick head gasket leave the pistons for now and work on top end esp. and also ecu will cost quite abit to get done for a turbo.

well its gna b a long process but if everyone rkns turbo is easier well turbo it is, always wanted a turbo haha. was gna do turbo vr but wayyy to much messing around.

also prty sure if i put a turbo on my gearbox is gna ****, especially the way us p platers drive...

I have an ABA 2L crossflow motor squirrelled away.
You could run it with your current ecu and the crossflow motor is easily tuneable with stuff from the states. Plug and play in your car and you can keep your gearbox.
Hit me up with an offer if you feel the need.

On the topic of 8v turbo's, is there any motor as such in oz? I haven't heard of any.

with the aba motor everything goes on as per the aus motor like the throttle body, alt, ac, ps, radiator, hoses. ect

Put a 1.8t and be done with it . You'll be dissapointed with the handling of a VR6 coming from a 2l . If you dont want to spend money , do a little headwork , cam and install a megasquirt and play around with the tuning , maybe even install a water/meth system
