Cheers for the replies.
Am in the midst of putting the 8v AGG in mine but always interested to learn about what others are doing and their results.

Thanks all, I didn't consider Seats....
As its a pickup it's got loads of room and so the search begins....

Good choice of engine there Neil and it fits perfect with no need to raise the deck on yours.

I was originally looking at this upright option using the FAS plate from Mario at MV Engineering but had all the diesel bits and the AGG came along at the right price and goes under the lid.

However the 1.8T 20v is still a route I could be going down in the future, not because i need more power, i just like the 1.8t and it has been a well proved conversion in the states. Which gearbox code are you running out of interest or have you gone flipped box.

Sorry Rogue Trooper - don't mean to hijack your post but this is a good option with potential for loads more power.


.......just realised yours is the non turbo!
