GT Vs GTi

Fantabulous. I don't want to bring up my old post so I'll ask in this one. Will a 1.8l 16v digi fit in a 1.8l 8v k-jet engine bay?

it fits in no problem at all, the only issue you have is wiring. You could run it on carbs though instead if you could source some weber DCOE's

Or forgo the 16v lump and get a VR6

You mean 16v k-jet to go into an 8v digi yeah?

If that is the case you will need the 16v engine loom as well as i'm led to believe the fuel pump and undercar fuel lines

16 digi into a 8 kjet

I don't know if you have something different over there, but the only 16v digifant we have is the 2.0 from the mk3 golf. Is that the one you mean?

[cняis]

perhaps he's posting in the wrong forum, and this car he speaks of is a *cough* mk3! 

[Mew]

You can't get a k-jet 8v mk3 though

I'm pretty sure they have digi 2.0 16v in mk2s in America

actually yes i think you're right, they were emissions regulated i.e. fitted with a cat and so on

Do you mean the abf?

Pretty sure they're 9A running CIS-E, but would have to check to be sure!
