    Hi all,

    Rather than buy something obvious (R32), that will get nicked like my last car (Impreza), I've just bought myslef a V6 4Motion and was wondering whether anyone had any experience of turbocharging them?

    I've found a whole wealth of sites that offer kits and a number of places in the UK that will supply/install. However, this secondary option seems expensive as they appear to just end up charging you a premium for a kit you could buy cheaper direct anyway. Then VAT gets added and the labour charge is fairly horrendous.

    Anyway, the site I'm particularly intested in knowing if anyone has used is:

    https://www.c2motorsports.net/shop/c...golfjetta.aspx

    Looks like I can get a fairly good kit (albeit for RHD) for around GBP 4,000 (incl VAT & Duty).

    Also, any recommendations (or otherwise), obervations, personal experiences etc would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Personally i would only go for a Garrett turbo but that is just my preference. Are you from the US?

    No, I'm in the UK. I THINK the turbos quoted are Garretts, but would confirm before I bought.

    If you go to the VR6 owners club you'll find quite a few boys there with turbo's and superchargers including some R32's I think
