12v VR6 is very easy, the whole swap takes a day and the wiring plugs into the fusebox, assuming yours is CE2 as it’s a later model J reg. Bolt a turbo on later if you need more power.
Ezy man. Channel and the Mk2 is comin on nice now mate! When/if you do any meets this year, I'll have to swing by but not in the VR unfortunately 😢. Man like Ricky droppin comments too, nice to see the love being shared 💜
an ABA motor, 8v 2.0 is very fun and peppy plus extremely reliable. Now if you had the time you could do a VR5 or 07k swap, just a lot more involved. Great video and keep it up!
That's one engine we never got 😑. Would've been perfect as I've seen what the Americans have done with boosting those. I want to keep it humble and reasonably cheap as possible
I’ve seen someone do a 1.4 turbo, cheap to do, but needs custom work I’d suggest tb’s but they are an absolute nightmare to set up perfectly SC would be epic😍💪🏼
8v cross flow head and throttles
I'm not sure if the uk go the 8v cross flow
Good to see you braving to world of being self employed pal. Hope it all goes well but I’m sure it will. Your work is top notch :-)
Thanks dude 🙏🏾 I've got all my hubs, discs and pads for the fronts now so it'll be the next thing to do
Loving these videos bud , keep up the good work 👊🏻
Glad you like them!
Put a v5 that would be different
Very true! I've never seen, if any done at all?🤷♂
I'll be honest it has crossed my mind but for an extra 30hp I could do the 24v vr6, it's like a tornado of ideas in my head 😂
Good on u bro great watch as always
I appreciate it dude 🙏🏾

Easy swap yes but it all boils down the cost for me with the new business. Vrs are definitely on the up but I'm still in the ideas phase

@@Project7YT That is a shame you guys didnt get it.
@piasprojects I guess we got alot of stuff you didn't so I'm lucky still

I need something dude 😂😂
I’d say vr6 or something like a 1.8t big turbo
I'd have to choose vr out of the 2 for the sound alone
@@Project7YTI have a vr, very fun and of course the sound. I think super charging a vr6 isn’t insane to, especially bolt ons.
Talking a couple grand for a used sc kit. Not expensive but not cheap
You will be happy with just a stock 8v 2.0 as a cruiser
100%, the car before this had a 2.0 8v. Great on fuel and you could have a bit of fun with it
The whine alone would be awesome mate just think they wasn’t done much on the basis of prices back in the day
The power to price ratio Is tempting me
Tdi swap it!!
Oh hell no 😂
2l 8v
I was thinking that but with a supercharger
