A turbo "kit" for the VR6 starts at ~$3000.
For the 2.0L, ~$2000.
The 1.8t is allready a turbo engine.

Well, 600hp is expencive, $15k sounds about right. Plus labour of course.
But the turbo itself isn't what costs money.

i'm going to drop the same post as before.
have either of your searched this site?
your questions have been answered multiple times.
and i mean multiple.
have you looked at vwvortex as recommended?
you'll find all your answers to your vw questions there.
all.
and come on...
what's better to mod, best gti or worst?
find a solid car and build it. it has nothing to do with being best or worst.
that shouldn't matter. find a solid car to start with.
