Question I want to swap my 2.0l with a 1.8T, but I don't know where to start.

I heard that my stock tranny will mount up to it, is that true?

Why not just but a Nuespeed turbo charger on ur 2.0, they're only about $2500, much less then a swap, plus no install headaches.

i agree with the nuespeed supercharger, the 1.8T is known to have more probs than the gls, peace
