There the team decided to swap the engine with something they had a lot of experience with. They decided to use a 3.2 L VR6 BUB from a Golf Mk5 R32. The engine was de-stroked to 3.0 L thanks to a 2.8 L crankshaft and upgraded with Techno5 forged connecting rods. Running off a large turbocharger with anti-lag and nitrous it produces 700 horsepower and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque. Behind the engine is a five-speed manual transmission from a BMW E46 330.<\/p>\n<p><a
