My 2.7 is approaching 80k miles and has been rock solid reliable, but I do know that there will come a day when it's time to address an engine replacement.
That 2.7 can be made into a 2.9 and make 30-40% more power! It drops right back in without hassles.

We haven't applied these enhancements to the tiptronic vehicles yet, but those trannys and components are fairly substantial, I don't know if they would take a 3.6 retrofit, but we'll have to try and see.

The ECU requirements are still being investigated as the 3.2>>3.6 is just now being taken seriously. We'll know lots more by the end of the year!
