    [blockquote]What about intercoolers? If on a budget could you use a different intercooler say off a 1.8t mk4 golf? And just do the pipework yourself or would it be better to get a vr specific one?[/blockquote] i've seen a kit with a saab intercooler but it was a big one,i would think 1.8t intercooler would be too small to handle the amount of boost that would be pushed/sucked through it,just my opinoin so dont shoot me if im wrong

    [blockquote]what i was thinking, install a short runner maniflod, mount the charger ontop of the engine with the extra room you gain without the normal intake manifold, then run a slitly bigger belt, i think i might try this as you can pick the charrgers up cheap[/blockquote] i've seen eaton chargers used but its alot of work,they're normally mounted where the air con compressor would be but i dont know exactly how the intake to the charger is sorted

    my mate did this on his scooby,he got a converter that goes to the gearbox and changed his clocks but might be different on the vags

    stealth do a turbo kit which gives you 350-360bhp on stock internals and gearbox,so i think it should be ok if you're only aiming for 300bhp
