MK1.5 Question

ChargedAW11 · 05-10-2006, 06:33 PM

Ok well I would just like to know how much would I be spending to perform a 3S-GTE swap into a AW11. Getting the motor is not a problem at all. I just wan to know the time and difficulty of all the other steps the process?

Expect $3000-$5000 just to get it running, and a few hundred man-hours of work. You will probably spend the most time finding parts and re-wiring the car. If I ever build another 1.5 I'll be starting out with an AEM EMS instead of trying to rewire the car to work like stock.
