Lol feeling your pain. I attempted a turbo swap on my driveway but ended up putting her onto a lift as it was just impossible to get at some of the bolts underneath without spending hours/days at it.

Yer that would of been hard on the driveway.
I swapped my Td04 for a vf35 using my mates garage and have had the gear box off 3 times.
My bug has to much power for the 5speed box
