How much would this job cost? (engine swap)
i want to swap a TII motor into my S5 na and im debating whether or not I want to undertake the project myself or if I should have a shop do it.
does anyone know roughly what speed shops would charge to do this? I am planning on going to a rotary-knowledgeble place. (BPR motorsports in mass. to be exact)
I am going to call them but its sunday and there closed... just wondering if anyone had input.
I have the tools to pull the thing off, just not sure if I have the time or skill.

if you want a good idea how much ... go to rotary resurections site.
as far as skill level goes.... i would say if you have to ask, you might be in trouble.
I just dove right in, and everything worked out.
if you have a tII long block w/ tranny , then its not too bad.
the easiest way to get an engine in and out is with the tranny on it w/ a sling that can be tilted.
its a lot to explain, so i would get some help with it from some one experienced.
and you need the TII ecu....
