Thumbs down ...maybe...

"VAG..." you say...sounds about right
perhaps....but deisels sound like crap and don't rev for ****, even when they make power (twin turbo Audi race engines do NOT count!) Did you hear that thing putting down the road? sounded like an old model T Ford or an army work truck.

While there is something to be said for the technical merrit of a swap (in this particular case there is none...save perhaps gas milage?), half the point is the "cool" factor and this is a collosal failure on both fronts.

It's like putting an LS series on RX-7's. They are not domestic cars but Imported cars.
