tunedubautoparts they works mostly on VW and Audies, amazing guys, and know what they are doing. They also sell VW parts, check it out, call them if they dont have it talk to George (owner) he will find it.

What year? Decent running condition VR6 engines are pretty hard to find (or expensive) in the earlier years.

If those two shops fail, call PG Performance in Surrey, BC. They can find absolutely anything, and at a good price. They will gladly ship it wherever you want, including one of the two Calgary dub shops.

I need a 1.8T, if he's willing to buy the one for $800 that is for sale, and pull the one I have, he's got a deal. The one I have has a distributor, but I believe it's still OBDII.

Montgomery parts yard, they are crooks. They charge you a first born child. Too expensive.

Agreed, plus one of the owner's sons who works there is a total douchebag. Rude treatment of customers + over-priced parts = fail.
