In this video we being pulling the stock drive-train out to begin the AWD conversion in this Big Turbo MK5 2.0T. We try and show you some of the steps required to turn a regular FWD GTI into AWD.
Current setup is a 2.0T TSI with a hybrid APR Stage 3+ turbo kit now utilizing a GTX3076 and Tial 44mm external wastegate.

Cool project! We're working on a similar project to release soon!

Thanks, we have a few on deck. We just decided to document this one since it's a long time project and deserves some attention. We've built lots of big turbo VW's but I always love driving this one. Good luck with your project.

Man Im so glad your vid popped up in my recommendations today. Very interested in this swap for my Built Mk5. As the MK5 r32 drivetrain pretty much bolts right in the interesting bit is going to be the wiring. Nice work and I can't wait to see the next vid!

What rear subframe are you guys using for the subframe. I'm definitely following this project, this is something I want to do in the future. Knowing what parts you guys are sourcing would be great. This is really cool all the searching I've done. No one has actually documented an awd conversion on video.

Been doing this since october on my mk6 gli i got really lucky as the trunk spare tire well doesnt get in the way on the gli, no need to cut it out!

@COMotorsports 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, it seems like the spare tire well is pushed back further on them. On the MK4's the spare tire well is in the same location and the rear pan is extended so it's completely different.

Have you considered the beefier aluminum rear subframe?

@COMotorsports 4 жыл бұрын

There's one laying on the floor right beside me at the end. It'only looks "beefier" because it's made out of aluminum so it's bigger. Strength is not a concern between the two. However the aluminum subframe is lighter. Since this specific swap all came out of a MK5 R32... that's what we're using for this one. The other one is for one of my projects. ;)

There are other things to consider when trying to use that older stuff. It may work, but we're not sure, as other parts of that drivetrain can be slightly different. The 2006+ A3 stuff will work though.

How much does this conversion cost, for someone who cant do the labour themselves

@COMotorsports 4 жыл бұрын

Price all comes down to how much you get the swap vehicle for, what the shop rate is where you're getting it done, and what vehicle you're starting with. Lots of factors.
