I just bought 1 from a salvage yard on car-parts.com for my 98 1.8t. Not cheap tho, I paid 1400/shipped for a 99a4 1.8t motor with 113k miles. Make sure you get a warranty and ask if they cover return shipping if the motor is bad.

Put a BOV on that pointed towards the street, you'll be able to knock over men, women, and children each time you let off the gas!
