The plans for the 6 engine are to fit a set of low comp pistons, save up for a DP Engineering Turbo conversion. It will cost mega bucks, but worth it in the end
The other option i was considering was to keep it N/A and use the GTI 6 head with the 1.8 bottom end. This is the cheaper option.
I did look at supercharging, but at 1500 for a supercharger alone and then another 1500 on top of that for the conversion kit, that option soon went out the window.
The DP Kit is 1800 odd, the pistons from wassner another 500, this seems the cheaper option. Not sure if to keep the standard cams or go for a set of kent sport cams.
I would prefer the turbo route as i have always wanted a turbo car. Will try the cable ties on the headlamps lol.
