      Im talking about a stock motor. If your talking about modding on top of the swap then shure it could be fast. I saw a gti 1.8t with bigger turbo, intake,chip, exaughst system, and some other bolt on. He ran somewhere in the 13 to 14 rang.

          Who in the fuck would go to the trouble of swapping a completely stock 1.8T?! :roll:

          It's my guess that the guy meant a somewhat modded 1.8T.

              Sorry I didnt know and it was a 2.0T. I dont know anyone who would want to put a VW/Audi motor in a bmw. Kinda seems if you would want an audi then why not get that instead of a bmw with an audi motor.

                Lol and price is insane, try to buy one from mazda. It's around 100k :(

                However here's a homade one, built from the previous gen Rx7 using 12A housings, that is using 13B. The company is called SCOOT and they are just insane when it comes to rotors.

                Sound's awe... some!

                    Here is a swap that commands respect:



                    Engine Type: 2-Stroke
                    Displacement: .049 cu. in.
                    Cylinders: 1
                    General Specs:
                    - 1 cylinder
                    - Displacement: .049 cubic inches
                    - Shaft: bolt
                    I'm Not Right in the Head | Random Rants and other Nonsense1st Order Logic Failure: Association fallacy, this type of fallacy can be expressed as (∃xS : φ(x)) → (∀xS : φ(x)), meaning "if there exists any x in the set S so that a property φ is true for x, then for all x in S the property φ must be true".

                      Definitely an S38B38 would be my top choice...and is my extremely long-term swap goal. Euro S50B32 wouldn't be bad either :)

                                either an s54 or 238b38 (realistically) but if I had any possibility, I'll take the Bugatti 16.4
