I've been kind of lazy with updating this thing. I got another 95 tsi awd for the awd parts. I now have everything i need to do the swap. This last weekend i ripped everything off the parts car that i would need and started on the project. As of right now i just have to finish welding in the hanger bearing supports and then i can mount up the gas tank and awd sub frame. I should be picking up a motor this weekend thanks to TKR. I also found out that the parts car has heated front and rear leather seats taht are in great shape so i robbed those too. Heres a couple pics of the progress and of the old motor.

Ok the swap is finished. ill get some pics up tonight. Quick question. Does anyone know if there is a fuse for the fuel pump or is it just the relays? Even before the swap there was no fuel spraying when i turned the key on and I'm wondering if maybe the previous owner maybe pulled the fuse or something.

[DSMINMN]

Doin' work over there in Alex. lol One of the faster swaps I have seen done. We need some pictures though...just sayin'.

I have everything hooked up now minus the driveshaft. The interior is all back in it with the new heated seats. Those will definitely come in handy in this cold. But after christmas the car might not be mine anymore. The fiance wants to get more into cars and possibly do a little autocrossing next year and I cant think of a christmas present so maybe she will get the talon haha. But anyway heres a few pics.
