The best porting is in Portugal #veicomer beryllium seats oversize valves and dimpled ports $1200 is worth more than a 100hp.

The intake manifold is pretty similar dimensionally to the IE one, just flipped around for longitudinal use. The OEM 944 power steering rack fits great and using the iAbed PS bracket we are looking good.

Bro just out of curiously, I plan to do a 07k swap on my Audi A4 Quattro. Any interest in helping with that project?

@@BoostBrothersGarage Just wondering what the difference is between this engine and the 07k in the RS3. I see Hank IROZ making 1,300 hp from a built 07k and wondering if I could skip buying the one directly from the rs3 and just built this one.

@@sportsworldrecap4442 the RS3 engine is aluminum block so it’s lighter. It also has stronger internals from the factory. But, the standard NA iron block 07K can make 1000 hp with forged internals and still cost less than an RS3 engine that would still need to be built to make that power.

@@BoostBrothersGarage that’s awesome, that’s EXACTLY what I plan to do then. Do you have a list of parts you suggest for the swap/engine build? Obviously I’m swapping an A4 not a 944 but something is better than nothing.

Boost bro's, would you kindly share what eBay store you bought that engine from, I would greatly appreciate that

I don’t use any particular store, just whoever the best deal at the time is. First one I paid $285 shipped, second one was $225. Don’t be afraid to use the “make an offer” feature!

Yoo. Can you guys possibly help me source a complete engine with loom and ecu? I'm in UK, we didn't get this glorious engines over here unfortunately. Tried American eBay and messaging a few people, nobody seems to respond for some reason. I guess they think of shipping and it scares them haha.

It was used in the Middle East market as well. Any way to source one from there? You could also try to set the shipping up for the seller using a freight broker.

I don’t know of all the exact technical differences, but the 07K is more modern technology but more importantly they are MUCH easier to find and really cost effective.

The Audi 2.5T is very similar to the VW 2.5L. Audi 2.5T has a forged crank & better rods/pistons and direct port injection. The Engine block is also made with a better grade of cast iron. Check out Iroz Motorsports & Malaka Motorsports for some serious RS3 videos.

Bro you are wrong that engines were use way before Galado was even constructed. If you want to know from where those 5 cylinders coming from check Rally Group B Audi Quattro.this engines were used in early 80’s

Why the fuck would you swap it 😩 You just ruined my day. Lack in power, go to the man Albert Broadfoot. He will tune the engine to over 900 horses if needed. Sure your engine has a little more horsepower but with Albert, dude he will erase you from existence. He also was a professional Le Mans racer who is a professional mechanic and also has been working on Porsche’s for 35 years. I’m pretty sure he’s been working on Porsche’s for as long as you’ve been living.

You are a moron. I communicate with Broadfoot, they do great work. Having options does nothing but help the 944 community. Guess what? You don’t like it, don’t swap it.
