Engineering, front brakes, nistune, injectors, turbo & splitfires would need to be done as well...

More cost effective to get the 20 singing.



For someone who's owned his 32 for like 100 years you really are a tight arse...

$2000 engine/loom + $1200 gearbox + $400 brakes + $600 engineering + $400 splitfires + $1500 turbo + $600 injectors + $500 nistune + $500 tune + $600 hoses/misc

Not going to spend $8600 when I can get my car running for $2k and re-use my turbo/injectors/splits/nistune :)

Why do you need Splitfires, Turbo, Injectors, Nistune, Tune... It's going to be faster than your 20 in every way in 100% stock form... 

230kw with my current setup vs. a 170kw stock rb25.

Even so, it will cost me $5k to drop in a stock rb25 setup as opposed to keeping my 230kw for $2k

My 33 GTST did 199rwkw with an exhaust lol. Even then that would be LEAPS AND BOUNDS above a 230kw RB20. It would be leaps and bounds above a 290kw RB20 in comparison. Peak power means shit when you have to wait till 8k to use it on the street.

Gotta look at the long term benefits and potential for future upgrade. Also shaving nearly 6-7+ years off the engine age. Resale value will be slightly increased. General reputation amongst VWLers etc.

Legit the only thing that matters though

Yah but yours is ded... Most likely because it's been forced into making 230kw and it kurt cobained in retaliation.

Stop grieving, start making 2.5L torque...

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
