Looking forward to this. There's more mk2/rado's with 1.8 20vt than mk4 these days. Good to see someone try different.

thats insane.  BWA engines can be picked up for about 1k and less now. 

250Bhp+/ton power to weight with practically no lag

@ the OP.

how much custom work is required to fit this engine?

@ carl  id love to, but i dont have the time for a project like this.
