And it will still be slower than most of the 4 cylinder DSMs and Evos.

Man, I don't know. I think spending the time/money into a built 4G63 would be better spent.

^ This coming from a guy who just spent $10k swapping a Subaru, those are words worth their weight in... anything really fucking light and really fucking expensive.

Re: could this work!?!

Because you can make more power with an easier platform by sticking with the 4g63. The TT motor is hard enough to work on in a 3S, the dsm engine bay is only tighter.

Not really.

Just throw in a TT V8 instead or maybe a V12.

Re: could this work!?!

that would be a lil to much cash and if a v6 has to have fabricating done could a v8 TT or a v 10 even fit..

Hell yez u kan mek mo powa wid da vsizzle, twice the turbo twice the power, 2 16Gs on pump at like 12psi make over 400psi, you'd have to max a 16G on a dsm to even get that much.

2 16Gs maxed out on a 3S would get you over 700 easy, thats insane hp.
I say if you can do it, then get it done it would be so badass.

Re: could this work!?!

I hope gravy chimes in on this with his 3S knowledge. But the 3S guys it sounds like run into a conundrum when it comes to bigger turbos, eventually you just get hit with super lag and its gay.

I have a better idea for you, 4G64 swap!!! Its still a 4G6x platform, AND ITS BIGGER DISPLACEMENT OH MAI GAWD!!!!!! POWA YO!!!
