Yep, that engine looks like it will be a pain in the neck with some years and miles on it.

Have you seen all the JDM vs VW fan boy bickering on MCM's social media about this project? :grin:
Dan_FR:
Not seen it, but be interesting to see how long the motor lasts... seen a few letting go at (or before) the 500 mark now... Not as bullet proof as many believe
pudding:
Yup. One or two have let go at 400hp, let alone 500 :grin:
The internet is a funny place. A handful of people get away with adding 200+hp to a standard engine for 6-12 months, and that earns it 'bomb proof' status :grin:
Show me a 500hp Golf R that's done 100K miles on stock internals, that hasn't been show queened or only driven to and from the shops, then I'll change my mind :smiley:
