VR6 Swap

Ya know, I keep hearing this from people who haven't done the swap but the
people who have done the swap that I have talked to say that with mild
modifying the frontend feels just as sturdy as with a 16v or 8v.  Does
anyone have any solid first hand information on this?  VR6 motors are
getting more and more available and it just seems like a great swap for
something if not a Scirocco.
