    I’d go vr6 swap personally but that’s what makes his build commendable; everyone goes the vr6 route but he went with a 1.8T. I can’t help but think how much quicker the car would’ve been with those mods on a vr6 though. The natural torque of the vr6 would’ve helped fill the out-of-boost response and would’ve made the lag less noticeable. Proper build though so congrats to this guy for doin it right👍
