Hello I did try to find out if this topic was already spoken about. I’m after something silly, I own a 2010 Ibiza cupra (facelift model) originally the good old twin charged automatic model.

I’ve currently stripped the whole engine bay down to little to nothing as I’ve thrown a rod bearing.

I was thinking of attempting something which I have yet to see in a 6j, a VR6 of some sort ? Whether it’s the 2.8 3.2 or 3.6 doesn’t really matter whichever one is easier.

Has anybody actually attempted this ? 100% of the fitting will be done by myself but unfortunately I’m unable to do any fabricating or any custom wiring. I ain’t after any fancy power figures as of yet.

I literally just want an Ibiza cupra with a vr6 that drives and changed gears. I would like to keep it automatic but if a manual change is necessary then so be it. I’m willing to sacrifice traction control and abs and any other wiring as long as it literally runs and drives is all I care about.

Thank you
