Message	If your NA engine goes bad and needs replacement, does this make your car a clone "clone" after the repair? If done right, a NA >> TT conversion is every bit as authentic as a factory-built model. The only difference is the hands that put the pieces together. Now if you're talking a 1996 TT, then you might have a compelling arguement because there's only 300 of them babies in North America.
