I'm already looking for a 5spd 1.8t fwd passat parts car... TDI would be awesome but too much money

97-99 passat or 98-99 A4 will get you the right engine (AEB)
I found a ton of info here when I was researching it: http://myweb.whitman.syr.edu/srotblat/swap/

Yeah, going to triple check for vacuum leaks. Going to figure out what injectors it has too (fine or coarse thread), and probably order up a new set. Then I guess I need to check the setup of the fuel distro/metering plate.

Have you tried that extra set of injectors I pulled from the wrecking yard? They were in a plastic bag in the trunk

Got a Bentley this morning, going to dig into troubleshooting more tonight.
In other news, I'm picking up a complete 7A swap from Chris (varia). Not as potent as the 1.8T swap, but much easier and a better soundtrack. Then there's always the possibility of a 7At in the future if I decide 160hp isn't enough for 1 wheel drive.
