swapping VAF and throttle body

Post by Jesse »

Does anyone know if the VAF and throttle body of a 1.8L can be installed on a 1.6L DOHC engine? If so, how easy and what needs to be modified?

isn't going to be worth your time... the gains will be so minimal , you won't even notice really anything... most of the time, overbored throttle bodies are giving there power at very high RPM's... like around 7000, which is after your redline.
