===================

Personally, I think you'd be nuts to consider a VR6.
Fabricate the motor mounts - good with a torch?. Pull
the engine to change spark plugs. No, the 020 won't
work. Make it even more nose heavy. I doubt that CIS
can be made to work with VR6. How deep are your
pockets?

I may be exagerating but if you really want HP why not
1.8T?
