I not unaware of the options. On the other hand the 3.4 are second only to 2.5 from what I can tell, on a failure standpoint. I have egas, so depending on who I'm talking to a 3.6 would work. By the time I am done with the sourcing the engine, the elctronics, the inevitable issues with tuning and parts like throttle bodies and engine mount fabrication, not to mention that transplant isn't something I can do myself... I'm back to where FSI would take me financially. Except with FSI I have a much better engine, much more power, virtually eliminated the normal weak points, and kept stuff like psm that I would lose getting a 3.6....(am I missing anything from the sales pitch Jake?)
Plus I like turbos
