Helped a buddy do up his RX7 oil pan that way. Just door hinges from home hardware and some sheet metal that was laying around. No more oil light, and a flying triangle engine with 7 HARD track seasons. 👌 mint.

I owned a 944 and a 914 back in the day! Good days they were.

Very random: those safety glasses are dope lol.

Love the 07k content

Finally, a 944 that doesn't make me say "meh". I5 sounds are glorious, especially with boost.

I'm glad to see this swap get more traction. I've been working mine for a while now. Time and money are always lacking for me. You guys are going to start and finish this buiilid before I'm close and I'm glad to be along for the ride!

You make it look so easy.. Cheers from the Netherlands!

Been so excited for this :)

I have watched this multiple times and each time I have enjoyed it more and more I want to do this to mines but I don't have the skills to manufacture or craft the motor mounts and suspension and bellhousing adapter or entire bell housing

This is awesome.

well thought out kit.

Well done.

Could’ve used an oil pan like that on my 944 turbo before I fried rod bearing #2 at the track.

I'd love to have an 07k swapped 944. However for the money and effort to build one i could have something else just or possibly more badass.

the engine comes out easily from top without removing transaxle and torque tube!

Should I get a turbo trans if I plan to do this?

Im not sure what your plan is (30 sec into the Video) but id go for a Rotry engine and a fuel tank up front to try to keep it 50 50, also the Rotary is lightweight and if youre going for rallye it probably lso wouldnt mind the occasional misshift and over revving. (compared to piston engines). Id also be thinking about either an electric Turbocharger or a Supercharger. Or you could go for a Motorbike engine as theyre light weight and if you were to choose an air cooled engine itd be one less point of failure.

Never knew Luck was a car guy.

Very cool shit '

If anyone's considering picking up one of these VW 07k engines, try to get one from a 2010 Jetta. The 2010 had a factory vacuum pump delete and electric power steering, discovered that while installing an IE intake kit this last weekend.

Sneak up on it

Yesssss

How much was the total cost of the swap?? I am thinking about doing my '85.5 non-turbo...

Great video! I want to fight the auto-focus on the camera tho

What year of the 07k engine is needed for the swap kit?

i guess if you don't want the threads you can insert a bolt then weld the bolt and then cut/trim/sand the bolt to be one with the other piece

I guess you probably dont know yet, but what's the ballpark you're looking at for cost?

this is great. nice to see the 07k get more swap attention. Plus Boost Bros is an ohio brand too. 👍🏼

Never seen or heard of this swap before. What are the advantages to this engine?

Did you work at turner in amesbury? I’m from the area I think that’s where I seen you maybe?

Please tell me which company from which car the Hydro Power Steering pump was installed?

hmm we used to just undo harness..remote shifter..undo half shafts engine mounts..and tilt up body..and we didnt have access to a lift like yours..ahh can do a 928 same way

No, Audi has several better options than what these guys chose. Then again, they’re vendors so they encourage bad investments

My 944 was confiscated by a crack head friend's parents when I was 19 smh.....

07K is ghey (cheap engine that requires a ton of mods, do the math) Just pay more for a AAN or 3B and cut down on 40% of the mods required to make any serious power.

After EPA gets the win, this car is illegal.
