Engine swap possible on R500?
Could you swap an engine from the m113 500 to say a 550? Im at a point where i drop 2500 on the engine to repair it or swap it out.
Would love to get near 400hp in the R500 but thats a stretch with the M113

Not specially swaping, maybe just chiping.....got a 2003 jetta, 1.8t, got it from 180hp to 235 just adding a chip, decat and straits pipe and nicer air intake....so, no real ( no expensive ) engine mods..... Imagine that but with a nice 5 litres v8......
