1.8 Petrol vs 1.9 D turbo...
#14
yeh if its a 1.8 make sure its 16V. My 1.8 is faster than my stage 1 Hdi. But to make best use of the engine you need gti6 exhaust and intake manifolds. You can fit a gti6 gearbox and head too. Main problem with the 1.8 is the ecu cant be easily remapped so youd have to go stand alone if you wanted to map it. Still all the above is my plan. Loving it!

GTI6 box and exhaust manifold fitted for £250
Inlet manifolds are £30 and probably the same to fit.
