I think Chris Stann has my feelings at heart too! Keep it a Volkswagen, or at the least keep it German with an Audi engine. I have not personally installed a Subaru engine but I have a fair idea what is required. I feel the I4 engines are simpler to install especially if you get someone [like us] to do the wiring harness for you - both KEPs and Fast Forward's kits require minor fabrication of some parts - it takes a little thinking for installing both. BOTH conversions have their pluses and minuses. I openly state that I am biased towards the I4 conversions, this is what I do during my evenings and weekends! I am sure by the end of the day you will see arguments for both. If you have any questions about I4 conversions please let me know, I will try my best to assist you.
