Get a list made up from ecosse and buy your own parts
There is another company called Pug1off who are highly rated for this kind of work
#19: Re: engine converstion Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Fri Jan 14, 2011 9:02 am ---- Just for reference pug1off offered to fit a brand new engine and supply for £700+vat. that was for a 1.6 8v but I believe they can get hold of others and fit etc so you can get a rough idea from there if that helps.

Never let anybody else work out what you need, the 'experts' can overlook things and you'll get a surprise when the costs go up. Best thing to do is ask on the forum what you need in order to get a wider range of views.

John knows
The TU5 106 Gti's can make 180-190 with them
So a TU5s should be abit better with the better head,
And some High Comp should get over 200bhp
