Blew Tranny, Swap Time Need Some Help

[95talonracer]

I was driving and went to shift into third on my 95 tsi fwd and there was nothing so I knew that the fork broke. I want to fix the tranny myself if possible and i also have a 91 tsi awd that I got for a parts car for very cheap. I want to take the 91 engine and swap it into my 95. At the same time I will fix my tranny and my clutch will be upgraded.

Any people have any good suggestions or sites for this operation. Also if there is something that you think that I should do different please let me know. Does all of this sound like a good idea to you guys that know more then me?

Let me know all of what you think.
THANKS!!

I have heard that the RRE way is better because you use the 2G crank angle sensor and you wont get the random misfire code. But I have the "magnus" way and I have gotten the code only one time. Its a really simple swap IMO.

Ok thanks. Is there anything that you ran into that I should know first hand?

Problems Ive had are:
Wired CAS wrong so car didnt start, No big deal just switched up 2 wires. Also RRE makes a plug and play for 1Gina2G.
Did rebuild with topline. Topline=Piss poor so I had to do it again
Also with a 95 you need to swap 2 plug wires or something. I have a 98 so I didnt have to do it and I dont know that much about it.
Other then that there arent that many problems with my car at least from the 6Bolt swap.

I have that 91 motor and I was wondering if you suggest to rebuild it and if i do what partd should I replace like crank, rods, pistons. I wanted to set it up for 600 HP so I dont have to do it again in the future. What will the stock crank in that hold up to and also should I do all new bearings or what.

[blageo23]

If you want 600HP you should probably go with a fully built motor. But if you are going to do that then you might as well go with a 2.4. The cost of building a 2.4 is about the same as a 2.0. There is alot of info on that swap out there too.

What will a 91 engine handle for HP stock, just aftermarket pistons, and pistons and rods?

[blageo23]

Im not for sure but a stock one can handle maybe 400-450. Dont know about just pistons but pistons and rods and all the goodies can handle your 600HP goal no problem.

If anyone knows what a 91 1g morot with wiseco or something similar will handle let me know.
