I think numbers and cost would be a problem.

Probably want a minimum of 50 or so before committing to tooling- and I can't see many people wanting to spend £3k+ on gear kits for Polos  :-\

Could be worth sending an email though? I'd be up for a set

Its a good idea but seriously the numbers dont make sense £3K is alot of ATVs or the price of a different engine gearbox conversion!

Yup this is (unfortunately) the conclusion that I have come to. Big block conversion (2.0 TFSI, 20v 1.8T, 20v NA etc) can all be made to have 230bhp+ with a decent gearbox, for not much more time/effort than putting a big block gearbox on the car.

Will see what breaks next!

That is true, but we don't have an unlimited supply of atv's haha
