    IMO just save the MT swap to when you're actually going to do your engine mods.

    Actually, do the engine first before transmission.

    interesting... in other forums they suggest for the tranny muna since it will make a huge difference on response, better potential, fun factor. any explanations why both and/or engine 1st? btw, my options for engine mods are FI or engine swap maybe VAG 1.8T from a B5.

Tranny swap on vw golf?
