 |

Hi everyone. I am not sure if this is a good place to post this particular topic, but I am looking to buy a motor from Powerhaus VW in California. https://powerhausvwparts.com/
I am located in Southern Maryland and looking for a somewhat close VW engine GURU to install this motor once is built and shipped.
2332cc Turbo Charged Turnkey Electronic Fuel Injection
I have installed the current 1641 motor that's in my car now, but for this Turbo motor and the cost of it, I would prefer someone who has alot of experience with this and can get it done right. If you know of any reputable installers in my area or close by, please let me know. Thanks in advance,

It's not hard to install a performance engine.
Pull the intake manifolds and turbo off and slip that bullet into the chamber.
The trick is after the basic engine is in the car. You have to reinstall all the ancillaries that you removed to install it.
The Porsche fan shroud will provide the clearance to get things in place easily.
I see that you have had a trans built. Is it up to handling the power of a Turbo engine you have selected? If not, be prepared to spend big for a suitable replacement that can handle the kind of HP that you are buying.
I'd be happy to install it for ya. But I'm on the wrong coast to lend a hand.

Thanks, and after doing all of the work to the car, I am pretty sure I could probably tackle it, but I just prefer someone with some experience to do this one.
