Looks really good, a snug fit but very professionally done

Wish mine had a 1.8T under the bonnet

looks awesome dude!!!...us 20vt polo owners should get together sometime and have a bit of a meet. think you might as well take the front grill out completely. looks mega mate....abit like deja vu though haha

Thats pretty tidy!

So what have they actually done to get the engine to fit?.... How much chopping/welding have they had to do?...

Got any more pics of the mountings/engine underside etc?

polo 20v group thrash needs to be organised me thinks....

Hmm. With my new job think I will keep my GTI for the tuned 1.6, then buy a red one and put in a 1.8T

Awesome....just awesome!

I am really toying with this idea now! My mate has just bought a Leon Cupra R 210 and it shifts! But in a Polo it will be amazing because of the weight in comparison to the Leon!

I cant justify spending 7-8k for a conversion really though...Sooo any extra hints and tips any of you guys can throw me way would be very welcome!

What drive shafts were used?

Any photos of the mounts?

mate i no it sounds a lot of money cos it is lol but its soooooooo worth it i wounldnt change it for the world
