Scirocco Syncro swap.

[scourge at cogeco.ca (Scourge)]

Europe only AFAIK.

We got the G60 in the Raddo and Passat. And we got Syncro in the Passat, 
quantum and I'm pretty sure we got the syncro vanagons too.
(I know a guy with a pretty sick Syncro VR Passat wagon, it hauls ass. Over 
5 digits put into the motor I'm told, and he has the craziest VW Motorsport 
shifter ever!)
