Update to blown (sons') engine...
Ok.. so in the back of my mind I knew it was 50-50 for the Insurance co to cover the 7.5", turbo induced , not dyno tuned, lean running, blown hole in the 1.8T (GTI). They said no.
The "pay off" deal also fell through.. the guy got gready and doubled the price.
So conventional methoods will prevail.
We found a 2001 AWP engine with only 1000 miles on it. so they say... for $1400.00.
Now to do the swap...
