Still a bit steep tho!

I just want a faster engine!!!

I'm tired of going around feeling like the thing just won't go! How much would it be to fit a gti engine tho?? It can't be that expensive! I can probably get one for £500 if i try hard enough. What about the fitting? How much would that cost??... and who would do it?

Well if you want someone to do it for you, i think it will be quite bit more expensive for the GTI conversion because it isn't just a straight swap i don't think. You can probably ask dubshack for a quote
