[quote=msh;55321]What's the reason for such problems? If u want KR engine [mk2 gti golf 16v], then put it in there, and not only it's head and block from other

And so on...

Pimpdriver, I like that txt about chipping atmospheric engine's ECU. Interesting, what kind of chip will make more air to enter engine, so extra fuel can be provided for increased power?

Reason why turborcharged engines can be chipped is very simple - it increases boost. Only thing that can be chipped in atmospheric petrol engine - modern EFI's have slower response to throttle and some other things because of "ecology" - unlike old engines, where u put down pedal and injector can't do anything other than provide fuel in needed amount

So only pro for ABF is that it's newber, but it's ECU must be upgraded, otherwise old KR will outperform it.

Back to topic - u can place there any VAG R4 engine manufactured up to 2000. year, later ones as well, but I think, FSI engines have new block layout - unlike old R4, which can be traced back to B1 and C1 and maybe more

Otherwise, engine can be swapped only with bolting it in place and biggest problem will be wiring harness. Of course, u can leave your k-jet, if u think it's enough and u will place there only 2.0 8v. U can place there 1.8 20vt as well, only there will be some electrical issues. Ahh, and also - better is to buy audi engines, because vw engine's manifolds can't be used in audis.

P.S vag80 why only 1.9? U have 2.0 bore but u still have 1.8 stroke

[/QUOT

because that is what i wanted to do to MY engine with my budget
