It actually flows worse , but , the bigger engines are all FSI , so unless you plan on doing wiring harness / ecu / fuel pump+rail etc swap its much easier just to use the bottom end to get a bit more capacity .Quote:

The engine comes with a reflashed ECU ready to fit. The company claim it is a 100% bolt on job, uses all the original parts except for the ECU that they supply.Quote:

$7900 + shipping + cams... baby jesus is crying but holy mother of god... for an N/A setup that literally bolts in the results would speak for themselves.
2.8 24valve with a 3.2 head skies the limit.....luv the topic
baby jesus is crying
If a Bora 4mo surprises me at the lights some day... at least I'll know what was under the hood!
Freakin' love it; I came so close to buying a 4mo instead of my S4! If I hadn't done so I'd be onto this without question.
Just aint cheap any of these conversions....be wise on ur decision
I would say they do that to make it a MPI 3.6 instead of a FSI 3.6.. R36 head flows better than a R32 head.. That's what I've been told.Quote:
