Replacement Leon Cupra R Engine, AUQ or BAM?!

Amk

Mate sorry for asking again but did you get hold or have you got contacts with people holding an AMK Engine?

Thanks

I've found plenty of BAMs about, but very few AMKs. Tempted by the cheaper AUQ route, but I'd prefer to have the correct engine code on the V5 as would help the resale value.

Thanks for responses guys.

Was just discussing engine change route with a mate at work. Out of interest what's the easiest way to get them out?

I've got a forklift at work with a crane attachment so was planning to lift it out the top, but sometimes dropping the engine out the bottom is easier. Gonna attach the gearbox out the car, will make clutch alignment much easier. Do the driveshafts come off the gearbox easily, or do you need to take the arb and wishbone joints off to pull the legs outwards?

If you melted your engine through running it with no cooling water, you should buy a bicycle. sorry to be rude.
 
hey man! I dunno if its possible. But what about slicing in the 2.0 TFSI engine. Make a real change. So much more fun to tune as well. 340hp possible...

i think all you will need is the turbo then,since the main difference is the ko3 turbo compared to the ko4 turbo...same 1.8T lump i think...

dont quote me on that,its what im lead to believe though!
