Exchange?

Post by turkpolo »

A guys offered me to exchange his golf mk4 gti with a audi tt lump, r32 kit all smoothed, lowered 40mm, r32 exhuast, brand new bbs rims. I liked the sound of it but as for not having a turbo car before i dnt know if it would give me problems. Its got 89,000 on the engine. HOPE YOU REPLY I DO NEED HELP LOL CHEERS EVERYONE

The 1.8T VAG engines, 225bhp TT one included, are generally bulletproof providing they have been properly serviced, think your only worry could be turbo issues at 100k+ miles. Hope this helps a wee bit.

Do your research mate. Get on a few mark4 forums, edition 38, uk-mkivs.net. Look up the 225 BAM engine and see what it's all about, how it works, what's it strengths and weakness' are.

Ha, that'll make it ten times better... However, those compact boots a very ugly. Don't get a BMW, go Audi.
