I was going to do this as opposed to just turboing a VR6 instead . The benefits of it would be a lighter front end compared to the VR6 , so realistically youd only really use it for track street . For a drag car you want the most weight as far forward in front of the front suspension towers , so , VR6T stays and although the 1.8t is lighter , the positioning on the VR6 makes it a more feasible option
