20g with supporting mods would be good for towards 400 bhp and the 34 upto 350. The 20 would in most cases be too much for the std gearbox and pushing the engine internals
What is your present spec? What is your aim?

TD05-18g would suit UK revs better than a 20g and is more capable than a VF34

Also consider a 16g if you target is under 340bhp

I had a TD05 16G front entry conversion on my bugeye and had to have it mapped a bit on the conservative side so as not to break the gearbox !!

Push your luck with an 18G

As above, if you go down this route, budget for a 6 spped/PPG gearbox!
