Re: Twin Turbo Swap... READ

sometimes it's not about just knowing you own a fast car, sometimes it's about knowing you put sweat tears and blood building the car to make it as fast as it is. or there's times where it's more expensive to buy a tt car than to convert one to tt (in my example, in order to get a tt for a perfect body, i'm looking at over 16 grand, where i could find an n/a with a bad engine and perfect body for between 4200 and 6400. now factor in it Just being the engine swap... no tranny, no nothing, just the engine, wiring and ecu (other stuff necessary of course) which i could find on ebay (again just the engine) for a little over 1500. i do all the work myself, now i've got a tt with a perfect body for 8-9 grand.

i guess it just depends on availability.... up in canada, any z car is hard to come by
