I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything but they will be able to answer this question much better there. Check out the hybrid forums in the technical section, it is dedicated to questions like this.

Default to anwser your question....

you would need the vr6 subframe bolts right up to the vw gti, and because of its a 91 gti if he were to get obdII( obdI) don't remember right now, but wiring is plug and play. Really simple swap. Suspension is a consideration. swapping to 5/100 many choose to do now(wider track). its called the +plus suspension. but its really easy for the most part. Do it in a couple days if your mechanically handy. but yes vortex is the right place to go too. Techtonics, can suppy your buddy with all his exhaust needs etc.

Vw motors mount to the subframe forgot to mention
