Hi All,
This will be my first post so please dont send me to the gallows straight away.
To keep it short, im lining up a parts list for a 20v conversion on my GTI (2004, Jap import, 70k miles) ( purists will hate me but hey im 22 XD)
I have an ARY engine, with box (6spd/O2M) 82K miles.
and an AGU Engine and box with 112K miles.
Looking at mounts and exhsuats and all that stuff, im wondering if i can just swap the bell housing from an O2M/O2J/A with the current 6 speed box. This would surly eliminate the need for notches, a new peddle box, i can use the same sump/exhuast run (mani will be different but it can join at the same place so it clears everything)
Am i just doing to melt the box or do people think it would hold? im aiming for 250bhp (i've not considered torque though, dose anyone know the threshold?)
Im not worried about top speed and all that, i quite enjoy the shifting sension every 3 seconds i currently get out of my GTI, plus i've seen 142 on the needle which is more than enough if my stripped down bean can.
any infor or pointers are appreciated.
