This phrase pretty much limits it to either a 2.7T or a 4.2T swap.


However, if you want something unique: go for a 6hp-19 6AT. It should be a direct bolt-on to the 2.7. It's not beefy enough for a 4.2TT, but theoretically should work with appropriately tuned 2.7.
Mechanically it should be pretty straightforward. Electronics I'm still figuring out, but I don't have a local car to play with. In several months I will.
