Not knowing a great deal on the Mk3, I can't comment too much, but you ask most people who like fast cars, if they'd like to sacrifice a little weight for a lot more power, I can guess what their answers would be :)

You always get the odd purist saying "you'll upset the balance". In the real world, it will be more fun, and that is the bottom line for most of us.
You're right though Johnny!
Mk 3.6 V6 Roadster (sold) now a Mk 3 Roadster avec turbo!
Fuck you too Johnny! :) :mods:
Today we did a little more work on the gearbox mount.
Here it is test fitted, it looks like we will need to increase the height of the chassis cutout to allow the engine to be craned in as the gearbox was hitting the upper part.
Here is the RH side engine mount, its still not finished but you get the idea.
And a pic of it fitted:
Finally heres a shot of the engine hanging properly in the bay, im pretty please with its position.
next on the list is the front and rear torque mounts :thumbsup:
Glad to see the progress Gaz, if an engineer is happy with it, then it must be good! :)
looking good there gary loving the engineering work good progress.
I like the way you have made the chassis mount unboltable, so it is reversible back to stock if you ever decided not to stick with the 3s, pretty cool that.
