1.8T motor into an Ur-Q?

[Rob Andrews]

First)
The care is going to be made a track only car.  The 1.8 is easily had, parts
are more common, lighter weight, more compact leaving room for a massive
front mount intercooler, and is capable of 400hp.
2) Are you sure the transmission would bolt up the drive shafts with no
other modifications?
