Default 180BHP Audi engine if someone fancies it

What a steal.

Not bad, assuming it's not been to the moon and back. You'd want to get shot of the K03 turbo though.

It would be ok for a start though the K03.

I was thinking along the lines of the low power engined guys wanting to upgrade. Instant 180 BHP on tap with more to come if they want to spend money at a later date.

All, these engines are comparable in physical size to the K series. So much room in the engine bay.

Makes the T series look like a juggernault engine!

I want a Z20LET Vauxhall engine... or the 2.2 naturally asperated one with a supercharger on. But going to perservere with the T16


It's a shame you pick up so much information whilst building a car, if I'd started off knowing what I know now I would have done things completely differently




damn it
