both the 1.8t and the vr feel really heavy and like they cant get out of there own way i personally would go with the vr as it is a bigger motor and doesnt put as much stress on the motor as the lil 1.8 but all i can say is be prepared to have a slow ride and the overall interior quality sucks (and i am speaking from experience as my father owns a vr passat piece of shit that my 97 2.slow owned)
Hey, knucklehead, 98-01 would have a 30v V6, not a VR6. Your pops must have a 93-97 model.
