Set the engine control immediately to Vems or something similar Custom clutch with basket from s8 or rs4b7 or 3.0tdi 016 gearbox is very short and it is not convenient, better 01e the torsen in the rear gearbox does not have a very large effect |

Appreciate it! I haven't read about basket from an s8 or b7. What does that provide? Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk |

"Targeting high-200hp with ability for high-300s upon turbo and ECU upgrades" for this HP level, you dont have to rebuild/upgrade the engine. for AAN/vems on 3B, you will have to figure out the CPS for 200, the stock urq intercooler is good (border line) anything above its need to be upgraded (limited space) and Bosch 044 fuel pump is internal. before you do anything, just read this forum, everything is here |

My interest to re-build is part of my enjoyment of the project. I'd be fine to just swap it over but knowing how long I want to keep this, I will enjoy rebuilding it to ensure it last as long as possible. |

I honestly love the way the 016 feels behind my AAN in my 4000, its a bit short on the highway yes, but around town and up to 70, its most enjoyable. I have the 01E ready to rock in the event i kill it, but im happy with it now. All your plans seem pretty in line with mine, i stayed with AAN motronic (stock ecu) and feel for what you want it will be maintenance and trouble free. and either 3B or AAN harness are very easy to integrate to 4000. one of the easiest swaps ive ever done as far as wiring was concerned. ![]() |

So awesome! And thank you - your message is very encouraging! Your FB post a few months ago was actually one of the sparks for me to finally pursue this. I think you have a great build!![]() I may ask you some questions as I get deeper into this, if you're willing. |

No major updates so far. I've been working on a deal to exchange my donor 200 for an already pulled 3b, which sounds like it'll work out this week. This should keep a 200 on the road but still get me a 3b. Question: what all do I need from a 200 from a swap? I know the full motor with all manifolds and connections and lines; flywheel; ECU; harness. Anything else?? I want to be sure I have everything in the exchange. |

Was finally able to get the motor - great to see this and have it on hand now! I should begin tearing it down over the holidays. So far my parts-on-hand are: the complete long-block and 7a cams. I still need to get the flexplate, 3b harness and ECU, downpipe, and a starter, in addition to the long list of items to procure in the first post. Question: Is there anything else I need from a 3b donor?

Finally opened up the 7a cams which were shipped. Do these look correct? I never got to see the motor they came from. I will have it polished before it goes in. ![]() |

Normal, but on the stock turbine there is little point in them |
