    Of course! I'd also recommend switching to injectors from a 1.8t - more fuel!

    is a 5 spd swap in the plans anywhere?

    if its not, an EMERGENCY 5 spd swap will be, as soon as your trans blows chunks all over the pavement..

    I would have changed my username to get people to take you seriously

    In any case since as you've said that you are now more mature, I will try to give a mature response. I highly recommend just trading in your car for the 1.8T version and just make sure you get one with all the features you will want (6 speed, bucket seats, nice wheels). I know this has been going on for ages now, but this is probably the best answer you will get, because you will still have your drivability, and as you said your world will be open to the 1.8T aftermarket parts. Bolt on and go...

    On a side note - for some reason things brings back memories of Gumby8v

    ...If you need to take out a LOAN to get a turbo kit that costs all of what? 3 grand? You aren't going to be able to afford the 6 speed swap. An O2M swap is alot of cash. Good luck, kiddo.
    I look forward to watching your "build".

    Actually i found a website that has a turbo kit availiable for all years. It can be used on a MK3 2.0L 8V and a MK4 2.0L 8V. It comes with a front mount intercooler, a V Band internal wastegate tubocharger, 2.5 stainless steel clamps, Vw 8 cast iron turbo manifold, piping kit, boot controller, oil return line, oil feed line, blow off valve bov, oil catch tank, and a fuel pressure regulator for only 874.99 bills. The Website is FMP Racing. The only thing the kit doesnt come with is a down pipe. I can buy the down pipe separate and ill end up splurging 1200 bills + installation.

    Lol, wasted money. That's a "universal kit", you have to build it yourself.

    Also... there is this thing called... management.

    Do you have any idea how horrible the build quality of eBay kits are? Do you even do research?

    And also, before you go hating on 8valves look at the q_jet's build. Once you surpass 374 whp then you can come talk to us like you know everything. And at the way you post stuff, im assuming this build, if ever done, will take 5 years to do because you cant even change your own oil but plan to build a 20v 2.0

    Thats the end of my rant, feel free to have a "sweet comeback bro"

    So, I decided I want a bigger exhaust, but F*** that $1000 is too expensive. I could spend that on original 1980's rare Air Jordans and an iPad 5 and porno DVDs and Mountain Dew. I could spend $50 on 3" PVC piping and duct tape and it'll give me the same HP as those guys with those 42DD exhausts. They're crazy for spending that much! I mean, I can even paint the pipe black to match my black on black on black on black theme I'm going for! I mean, I searched PVC piping exhaust on Google and some guy said he gained 300HP on his Geo Metro with it. Idk, that's what he said though.

    the webite didnt say Ebay on it. i would rather blow 876 stacks than ****** blow 3700 stacks any day, buz my bread kind of funny you know what im sayin. Like ya said there are cheaper ways in gettin hp. since i changed my mind about swappin into a 20/20 because the cost of such a project that i could have supplied my self with 5 pairs of brand new Jays, Ipad 3, Beats By Dre's Pros, Chargers and Cowboys leather buzzard (jacket), Authentic New York Knicks Jersey, Joe Rodeo, and a Pancake screen Samsung 55 in tv, some square black dimond ear rings ya heard me, the kits claimin that it will provide me with 350-400 hp, and again thats what its claimin
    "eBay quality" kits are all the same. Don't expect to pay under 2 large for a well built ready to bolt on turbo kit. eBay turbos almost always have excessive shaft play, and will end up blowing up. Not to mention the entire fueling area. Do you even know what fueling is? You'll need bigger injectors, and a tune, unless you want to blow the motor up. That automatic trans will blow pretty quick, anyway..

    Look, kid. I'm actually going to be serious with you.
    Just buy a 1.8T 5 speed swap. Really. Then you have a 180hp starting point instead of 115hp autotragic. It'll be much cheaper than turboing a 2.0. You don't seem to be able to change a battery, let alone install a turbo kit. A shop will screw you when it comes to labor to install a turbo.. For a 1.8T swap I think you need:
    Engine
    Trans
    Harness
    Ecu
    pedals (for standard swap)
    cluster
    axles
    exhaust (the stock 2" system will choke it)
    ...and more I'm sure I'm forgetting..

    Please, just save the money and buy a 4 door with a 1.8T already in it. If you have to travel a little, so what? It's worth it. If you plan on daily driving a 2.0T, expect to have some reliability issues.

    PS: Have you thought about a Neuspeed SuperCharger? They nearly double the HP to the wheels on low boost. If you can change a serpentine belt, and an intake manifold, you can install the Neuspeed charger. Really. Go that route, and save yourself the cash. A neuspeed kit is around 2500 new, you can find them for around 1500 used. Easy, cheap, reliable power. Especially paired with a bigger exhaust, maybe a 260/256 camshaft. The auto may be able to put up with it for a while, but a 5 speed swap is a much, much better way to go.
