I have an 05 B6 1.8T. It is currently out of comission due to a crappy high flow exhaust manifold that I got less than a year ago with my k04. It must have cracked some time ago right at the second runner causing my head gasket to blow. So now my head is off the car and I just bought a daily driver. I was thinking about building the motor down the road, but now seems like a good time to do it sinces she's already ripped apart. I want to put strong internals so that when I get more money I can put on a big turbo. I was also thinking about a bigger bore and porting and cams and whatever else to get as much out of it as i can. This is my first turbo car so I do not have a lot of experiences with with them. I welcome any advise on what direction to go or what parts to use or anything really that you can offer. I appreciate anything anyone has to say...I need some guidance.

 

anybody have any suggestions?
