Just wondering would this engine be viable for a conversion .

It makes good power . small , water cooled . f. i . wet sump .

Is it as simple as toss the type 4 . clutch adapter kit and wiring

or is it much more complex .


The radiator is Tiny . smaller then most oil coolers ? so It would not need front mounted huge heat exchanger ?

for some reason it runs right next to the header pipe ???

Please give me your thought's .

pro's

con's

cost s

ability to go back to type 4 motor if desired ?

hey o .

I really like the audi 1.8T (Like Mike Bellis's) or the WRX turbo motor in these cars. I bet the larger 4 cylinder turbo makes a great combo...

What makes my conversion work is the tune. Using a factory ECU tuned for a big turbo and methanol is awesome. It runs like a mild mannered Audi around town. If you put your foot into it, the motor comes alive and is a blast to drive. Once I get the drivetrain relocated in the chassis, the car will be mechanically perfect.

Nothing wrong with aftermarket ECU's. But I don't think they have the driveability or computing power of a factory ECU. The aftermarket can be tuned to give similar power results but still won't drive as well. I have no flt spots, no jerkyness, perfect idle, near perfect AF mixture, easy cold weather starting, and on and on. I think the Bosch Motronic 7.5 I'm running could be adapted to any engine if you have a good tuner.
