V6 gets the G as standard from what i understand, but i'd assume with a V6-specific bellhousing...as i'd assume the engiens have a different bolt pattern but i've never compared.

i got 194kw atw (which was limited by the stock fuel pump!) but that was with a T03/T04 turbo which was too big really - too laggy (but the push in the back when it spooled was awesome). But having the bigger turbo saved gearboxes as the stress wasn't on the box until it was already spinning quickly.

As to cost, probably a 2.5 conversion woudl be cheaper as there's no cooler/piping etc, as it's more or less just bolting the same engine in (from what i understand) and connecting things up
