I add water methanol over nitrous. Mainly because I live in Canada and water methanol is legal and easily obtained and made with windshield washer fluid and mixing a little bit of trucker brake line de ice (its 99%methanol) mix a bit to make a 50/50 mix for far cheaper than anything that's being sold for water methanol kits.
@@RundUmsGamen exactly, I know of 3 tsi mk1's, 1 mk7 R swapped mk2 and a bunch of tsi mk2's and well as 1.4tsi mk1's and some daza mk2 and 3 in the usa. Just because it isn't on Fb groups or IG or Yt doesn't mean it isn't happening. Before 2001 there were 1.8t and 5cyl 20vT swaps in mk1's with AWD. In no way am I trying to take away from what Paul and Charles are doing, because it is awesome! Just saying, it isn't a first or that uncommon.
Thanks for purchasing/installing our radiator! Small correction, though: we're actually an American company; our corporate headquarters are located in New Castle, Delaware. (The company name comes from the name of our founder's cat, Mishi. Mishi + moto = Mishimoto.) Great video, guys!
Best series I've seen in a while. Getting tired of seeing crazy swaps by guys with unlimited budgets and entire machine shops at their disposal. Seeing you looking miserable in a pile of harness spaghetti staring at wiring diagrams is some real life struggle lol
Yeah, I agree. I'm so tired of watching all the supercar builds going on. This is what people want and need. Plus, you learn a lot watching these, and the goofy duo is a hilarious pair. 😂
Best thing about this series, and the other DAP/Humble series, is that we know it's going to get done. It might not work, and it could explode, but we'll get to see it brought to some form of completion. And we won't have to watch them start 6 other projects before this one is finished either. Excellent content, and thank you for staying focused and delivering what we came to see!
This is such an amazing project, built by two of the best and funniest mechanics. Seeing you two working together always makes me smile. Keep up the great content.
The best videos about a swap until now and i tell you why. It's a real video showing us all the problems you can find and how you solve it. Not like those episodes on discovery turbo when they start a project and tv magic 60 min later the car is done. Congrats to you guys you make a really good team!
This channel is quickly becoming my favorite UA-cam channel as of late. Love the humor and lack of critical thinking skills, it's a good time no doubt.
I have very little interest in Volkswagen, but I can see you all have engineering centric minds and I applauded you every step of the way on this journey.
Driveshaftshop has been a go-to vendor for HD axles especially for a long time so its cool to see inside their facility. When there was nobody else making upgraded driveline parts to handle big power they were one of the few that existed. Very cool to see the long block fully mounted with your engine/ trans mount 'R&D,' along with the cooling package, charge piping, intake, etc. Excited to see the downpipe fab, fueling setup, etc. Great work, fellas! 😁👍
Every step of this seems impossible to me but you guys just make it work! Love seeing how you get through all the struggles and have a laugh while doing it
Im trying not to laugh watching this but i am howling! I FEEL YOUR PAIN. When you do one off projects, the problems well yeah. I am stuck on a project myself right now. Also, everytime i work on cars with friends, this video is the summation
As someone who used to repair trailers, working up in Canada and seeing how easy you took that bearing out hurt my soul. I have many, not so fond memories, of using a 3/4 impact and just hammering on the removal tool with another guy using a torch to pull those rubber bushings out of trailing arms.
Extremely fun and informative as always! No better duo to go through this kind of project than you guys. Best part is I'll be ordering some CIS injectors and clicking the box to have Paul come and install them. Thanks! 😂
Your making a 5 year old dream of mine come true with this video. My first car was an mk3 golf (basically jetta with the butt cut off if you dont know) and i spent uncountable sleepless nights thinking abt swapping an mk7 gti engine in my mk3. Big
I have so much respect for you guys doing this. IDK about you guys but when I'm working on large projects I lose sleep over thinking everything, trying to figure out in my head all day what to do next and figuring out things I'm stuck on.
I consider both of you VAG God's in your own rights and love just your individual content but this is next level especially growing up with OG fast and furious movie too and a love of mk3 and mk4 vw golfs and jetta. Hilarious and super entertaining and I'm never doing this ever unless I was doing it with you two 🤣❤️
I am an American who owns a panther platform Lincoln Town Car and am looking to get into a car that is totally impractical and unreliable with very low resale value. But a fantastic driving experience. Luckily I came across this channel.
Great work guys! This is so interesting. You are pioneers. This makes the AEB 1.8T swap I performed in 1999 in my mkII look like child’s play. I can’t wait to see this through to the end!
I wouldn't feel too mad about that passenger axle fitment. I have to loosen engine mounts and jack up my engine to get stock mk3 axles on and off my mk3.
Just to let you know the VAQ needs steering angle yaw sensor, abs sensors to work for the torque vectoring. Im doing this swap into a mk2 and going to bin off the vaq and just get a mechanical LSD fitted. The DSG has its own internal speed sensor so it's easy to get working, the VAQ i think won't be. This may make your engine mount issues much easier.
This is an awesome build guys. Can't wait hear this running. You both are simply fantastic working together. Good friends having a good laugh but also very bloody clever to. ❤
Last line in the vid had me cracking up. I have a (pipe) dream of a Mk1 Scirocco with a VR6. As I'm watching this episode, I'm thinking once I win the lottery, I am looking them up for the build...
The world needs more MK3 content. I have an ALH swapped MK3 Jetta, similar issues with mounting but all the points are there for the old style mounts on the ALH block. Gotta love VW interchangeability. On that note, you should have just gone to a MK4 1.8t 02J transmission with MK3 TDI mounts lol. Bolts up to your engine and gives mounts that work. None of the fanciness of the MK7 trans but is it really necessary?
I loved every single thing about this video! I’ve always thought of a tsi mk3 or even mk2 golf, awesome work! You answered a lot of my questions that i never asked.
12:12 No thats the right way, those DSG- clutch dumps with LaunchControl and that great Front difflock will tear this Jetta where it has never felt it before :) I hope those lower mounts hold up, I probably would have done something with the TSI´s upper engine mounts also to control the twisting forces...
Water methanol injection is fantastic! I've been running it on my 1.8T B5 for about 2 years. And with a K04 I got about 300whp! It's also on E85 though so...
It is more challenging to use the Mk3 Golf/Jetta underpinnings, however I feel it would have been more convenient ta take a Mk4 Golf and use this for the swap. PS: I have always dreamed of this kind of experiments, keep it up.
Damn, when i did my 24V 2.8 VR6 (AYL) swap into my MK3 Golf GTI, i wanted to keep the Climatronic AC system and i kept the stock radiator shroud and making it fit was a nightmare, i had to bend the aluminium AC Hoses to not hit the front Oil temp sensor and rotate the main fan so the Fan connector doesn't hit the hose that goes to the radiator from the Thermostat housing, Im glad that i was able to complete the swap 100% in house (home business, car service), that helped a lot and the total cost of the project was a joke thanks to the fact that i had all the tools and done all the work and the fabrications myself. all of that by keeping the SAI system, Carbon Canister from the MK3, MK3 ABS system and what i have now is a 24v MK3 GTI like it was built that way from factory, 0 error codes on the ecu everything working 100%.

haha this is crazy man. damn you are doing something insane
Fuck yes this is amazing content right here more of this ❤
I now coin the phrase "self-induced engine swap"
because everything that happens to you in the process is self-induced.
I add water methanol over nitrous. Mainly because I live in Canada and water methanol is legal and easily obtained and made with windshield washer fluid and mixing a little bit of trucker brake line de ice (its 99%methanol) mix a bit to make a 50/50 mix for far cheaper than anything that's being sold for water methanol kits.
I have a question, do you know the brands skoda and seat, these brands are also VW
You guys are legendary for trying this swap. So many want to do it, you guys have the balls to attempt it. Much respect!
You could have stopped at “You guys are legendary” 🫶
Do or do not. There is no try.
There are several on the road, not everyone put's it on SMO's.
in germany, we have done it multiple times already. in mk2 golf etc. not so special ove rhere anymore. even daza's.

I’m not sure if you could consider Paul one of the “best”😂
The windshield wiper cat was some of the finest cut-editing I've ever seen in a youtube video and I am ready for the tshirt.
I literally just finished part 1 mins ago 😂 perfect timing
Me too I never expect Part 2 so fast
😂
The best videos about a swap until now and i tell you why. It's a real video showing us all the problems you can find and how you solve it. Not like those episodes on discovery turbo when they start a project and tv magic 60 min later the car is done.
Congrats to you guys you make a really good team!
Guys i cant sleep,What an awesome swop,Can't wait for Part 3,Awesome Awesome Awesome,You guys rock.Rowan RSA🇿🇦
I’m really loving this series! Can’t wait for part 3!
This build series is really good.

You guys should start selling these swap kits for the MK1, 2, and 3. I would buy one for an MK1 right now. Wiring especially.
Nothing like getting a new shop dap video on your birthday

I hope at the end of this Chad Lindberg shows up (or any of the cast from FF). You 2 are making history and some amazing content to watch.
Im trying not to laugh watching this but i am howling! I FEEL YOUR PAIN. When you do one off projects, the problems well yeah. I am stuck on a project myself right now. Also, everytime i work on cars with friends, this video is the summation
I love Paul, dude is hilarious. On top of that, he knows A LOT. Add to this awesome mix Charles, and you have a match made in heaven. 👌

Finally part2 🎉❤
Really fun chemistry between you guys, a pleasure to watch all the jokes in addition to the very interesting engine swap process.
Extremely fun and informative as always! No better duo to go through this kind of project than you guys. Best part is I'll be ordering some CIS injectors and clicking the box to have Paul come and install them. Thanks! 😂

That was the sickest video transition in the history of the Intertubes.
When printing boost pipes - “I think this is roughly perfect” is an excellent fabrication descriptive 👏👏👏
You two have earnt a subscription from me. You're the funniest mechanics and the most interesting to watch
This is the best VW swap/fab video on the internet.
you two are both unprofessional yet meticulous and i enjoyed every minute watching it
I have so much respect for you guys doing this. IDK about you guys but when I'm working on large projects I lose sleep over thinking everything, trying to figure out in my head all day what to do next and figuring out things I'm stuck on.
Feel like this is modern day hot rodding. Awesome series indeed.

Loved this episode got alot of laughs out of me, comment for the algorithm!
These two goons working together on a project like this is awesome...they be fun and actually informative at the same time.

Loving this series, the dynamic is great and feels so natural. More would be welcomed😎🤙
Charles said "TAG TEAM BACK AGAIN" and i totally understood that reference ... WHOOMP !
Amazing work guys, always a pleasure watching you guys do your thing :)
I wouldn't feel too mad about that passenger axle fitment. I have to loosen engine mounts and jack up my engine to get stock mk3 axles on and off my mk3.
Really good to see all the work around that is going in to getting the engine and accessories to fit. Keep up the good work guys.
The next episode can't come soon enough. This is an awesome series and build for sure.

Cant wait for the finished project!
This is absolutely fantastic! LOVING this series!
Everybody needs a Steve when doing a car project like this one
I would be interested in more videos concerning the common issues with each of the engine types and ways to prevent the failures.
A lot of sketchy cutting and mounting. I love it!
Late to comment because we were working on the Jetta. HAHAH!!! Glad to see yall are digging this series.
We have been hard at work
Wow you guys work a lot on this i mean like hours and hours... Crazy our passion for VW
Currently living for this series 😂
In South Africa, they doing MK1 Golfs with GTI Mk5/6 engine and DSG swaps. Love the development you guys are doing for this swop.
honestly what a duo (trio including the cameraman)
you guys are Crazy! 🙂But I admire your ability to even contemplate this. Kudos Guys.
I love this. I’m obviously late to the party but this is so fun to watch you guys
That engine bay is clean ! Very cool
I love the humor in this episode!
ABSOLUTE VW LEGENDS! Great content.
I’m really enjoying this series! Can’t wait for the rest of these episodes
respect you guys so much!
The 3rd part dropped while I was asleep lets go 😁
Great work on the mods and 3D printing gentlemen!!
Much respect on this swap. Although you do realize now you have to fix the rest of the car now 😂
Guys, the content, writing and production level is through the roof! Great work!
Freedom units - love them.
Looking forward to the rest of the build.
this is such awesome content. thank you guys
This is an awesome build guys.
Can't wait hear this running. You both are simply fantastic working together. Good friends having a good laugh but also very bloody clever to.
❤
hilarious back and forth as always, love it
You absolute maniacs! Really nice job and fun to watch!
I love watching you guys work on cool projects and goof around. Definitely squad goals with the homies!
I certainly enjoy the sleep deprivation sequences
Fabless Manufacturing makes ridiculously good kits. ive done swaps with them before, very high quality, fit, and finish
you guys have such good chemistry. fun build!
Damn, a lot can happen in a week. Well done gents!
Loving this series. Keep up the great work😁
one of the coolest swaps ive seen in awhile. You guys are so cool.
Last line in the vid had me cracking up. I have a (pipe) dream of a Mk1 Scirocco with a VR6. As I'm watching this episode, I'm thinking once I win the lottery, I am looking them up for the build...
This is a awesome project. Great work guys
I did not expect so much entertainment from these 2 legends ❤😊
The world needs more MK3 content. I have an ALH swapped MK3 Jetta, similar issues with mounting but all the points are there for the old style mounts on the ALH block. Gotta love VW interchangeability. On that note, you should have just gone to a MK4 1.8t 02J transmission with MK3 TDI mounts lol. Bolts up to your engine and gives mounts that work.

I loved every single thing about this video! I’ve always thought of a tsi mk3 or even mk2 golf, awesome work! You answered a lot of my questions that i never asked.
Can’t wait for the next episode, supporting you guys all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
12:12 No thats the right way, those DSG- clutch dumps with LaunchControl and that great Front difflock will tear this Jetta where it has never felt it before :) I hope those lower mounts hold up, I probably would have done something with the TSI´s upper engine mounts also to control the twisting forces...
Good luck with those Fabless parts... hopefully their QC actually made sure your parts aren't gonna fail like most of their stuff does.
This is such a killer build.
Tbh i dont really watch your channel, but when you do a cool build like this im all onboard
So much fabrication that i really like. Amazing work guys
i love all the custom brackets.. wish i had a water jet machine in my garage.
Saw Jessie yesterday at Icar and he brought his white Jetta and I’m a huge vw fan currently mk7 GLI
This is a great series, so glad you guys are doing this project!
Water methanol injection is fantastic! I've been running it on my 1.8T B5 for about 2 years. And with a K04 I got about 300whp! It's also on E85 though so...
Im super impressed how this swap is going
It is more challenging to use the Mk3 Golf/Jetta underpinnings,
however I feel it would have been more convenient ta take a Mk4 Golf and use this for the swap.
PS: I have always dreamed of this kind of experiments, keep it up.
Amazing vid. Very funny too. Well done for doing this swap.
Wow its coming together a lot better than I thought it would. First video seemed like an exercise in self torture.
best series I have watched thus far, you are a hoot to watch, amazing content so much to learn.
Damn, when i did my 24V 2.8 VR6 (AYL) swap into my MK3 Golf GTI, i wanted to keep the Climatronic AC system and i kept the stock radiator shroud and making it fit was a nightmare, i had to bend the aluminium AC Hoses to not hit the front Oil temp sensor and rotate the main fan so the Fan connector doesn't hit the hose that goes to the radiator from the Thermostat housing,

Everybody loves swaps (im not about wifes)
Everybody loves to watch swaps and nobody likes to make swaps.
Great job! Waiting for new part!
