you need all the front suspension including HUBs Axles and Breaks. You need the ECU as well....you might even need the Insturment Cluster. Andy of your new suspension needs to be able to hold the weight of the VR

benzza, what is your continued fascination with this engine?!

It's heavy, it sits too low, and you still have to turbo it, plus the tuning and all the other cr@p!

Just go big turbo on the 1.8T.

Ahhhh, u have a 2.0, sorry!

Next thing ur gonna tell me is it's automatic.

Yeah, u could turbo or supercharge it, but I'm not sure u'd ever get say, 300hp.

You could swap in a 1.8T from a wrecked NB, use it's cluster and then BT it.

Sure you could. But you would be better off, and have a more powerful, more adjustable setup with turbo. Supercharger would be good for maybe 200 HP, ask SMG.
