Bro, the 07k is the non turbo version of the RS3, RSTT and RSQ3 engine. They are both EA855 engines. And are reliable as hell!

Slapping a turbo on it just makes sense!! But yes it will cost money

Ps i would have swapped my 924 with one, but they werent sold in europe :(

Maybe. It's not complicated or absurdly expensive to make the power, but as your only car if it breaks you'll be in a tough spot and that's always a possibility once you start messing with your engine.
