any particular year… any particular vr6?

more importantly are you looking for the engine… or a shell to swap into?

booya!

yeah… unless you have the skills and about 10k to drop on a turbo vr6… get a 1.8t … unless you want a NA engine…

you can drop a stock 1.8t in a mk3 and run low solid 14s… little bit of work to get into 13s… and about 2k later into the 12s.

go to classifieds on [www.vwvortex.com](http://www.vwvortex.com) for used stuff.

if i was you I would not buy a VR6… buy cabbys setup or get a complete Euro 1.8T swap… it fits perfect into the mk3… and you can get everything you need for 4500

the trend in SoCal… you can purchase the 1.8T engine and tranny from europe out of this company in SoCal that they sell as a kit… it fits perfectly in the mk3… it goes in some euro audi… if anyone is interested I could get a hold of the guy.

1.8t is possibly the best swap for the MK3.

sorta pete… thats long. we need transverse…

plus the intake tracts are bigger on the euro, as well as the turbo… 97 a4 = ko3 02 a4 = ko3S
