Looks like another dealer reselling Overland / Eurospec parts... I do like
the exhaust note of those 5 cylinder motors!  I think the 1.8t would be
simpler to install and offer more power and better mileage though.  I just
can't help but think that for 7500 USD you can get a TDI engine *installed*
in you Vanagon!

I ran across the website offering this engine for sale.

Seems interesting.Prices START at $7500. for those folks that want to change
the WBX.

That is a lot of money for an engine, you could get you a built WBX,  a lot
of new parts and a  5 speed gearbox for less.
