Fully, Dave and I were just talking about this over the 4th, along with it being one of the engine options on the (new) Scirocco,
and just how much of a freaking beast it would be in a MK1/2.

The only downside to the thing is that it would be that much more difficult to explain any engine issues/symptoms to the dealership
- they have a hard enough time understanding (anything) as it is.
