POLL: NA MKV R32 motor or 12v/24v 2.8 Turbo??

NA R32 hands down. VR6T is the easy way out.

Guessing you know from experience ?

Engine conversion + turbo is a waste of money . You'll make similar power with the 12V turboed .

You need to decide n/a or turbo and go from there !

Not experience just common knowledge.

Either way isn't tooo hard.

I already have a gearbox built that fits both applications.

I have megasquirt 3 mapped for the r32 motor. It wouldnt be too hard to tune up for the vr6 turbo.

If I went r32 route I would be spending almost 2k on cams, valves and springs. If I did the turbo I would be spending 2k on injectors, intake, manifold, turbo and a random intercooler kit.

I'm leaning towards vr6 turbo... but then again maybe I could do a decomp on the 32 and twin turbo it? Smaller turbo and a bigger one?

I voted 2.8T but if you're going to bi-turbo the r32 then I retract my vote haha. I'm so much for turbo spooling sound over engine sound...even when it's a turbo in a huge truck haha, just sounds NICE!

N/A R32 it is.

2.8 will rev harder than the 3.2
if i was goin turbo the 2.8 would be the best way togo...
Ive gone the route of a 2.8 with a r32 head N/a.....the boys at 034motorsport produce 900hps turbo version

than what Bugracer said has alot of merrit to
