1.8 or 2.0 into 1.6 si

Postby Raymondo on Fri Sep 16, 2005 12:32 am

Im new on here so first of all hello

i Have a 1.6 si and am looking to do an engine swap. Looking through the site i have seen guides explaining how to fit a 2.0 and it looks fairly easy. however being only 18 i want to go for a 130bhp 1.8 i havent seen anything explaining the fittting of these but i imagine it would just be a straight swap as ong as i had the ecu and everything would jus slot straight in, am i right. as for the power steering i presume i would have to get a mk3.5 rs1800 engine. also would the rs1800 ecu have the internal e-dis.

Cheers
Raymondo

Go for the 2.0 from a mondy group 10 ins as opose to 14 for the rs 1800. 2.0 makes better torque
