Hi guys - here in the UK we can buy the B8.5 A5 with the EA888.3 (gen3) engine, and I would eventually be looking towards installing the G25-660 turbo to it - however I was wondering if anyone (more experienced than I) could give me an idea of how straight-forward or difficult this could potentially be?

There is a G25 turbo kit readily available for the MQB transverse-mounted EA888.3 (gen3) engines - but nothing for the longitudinally-mounted MLB engines - so I was just wondering how much of a problem this might cause? Would a lot of custom work be required? Or would it just simply be a matter of just changing 1/2 things?

Either way, I know it will cost more time and money - but I just want to get a rough idea for how much more time and money it will potentially cost me.
