Re: [Mk2 16v] 2L 16v engine upgrade

["Scott F. Williams" <sfwilliams@home.com>]

Kareem, the 2.0l 16v is a direct bolt-in with no need to modify anything.
The fuel and ignition system switches over 100%. I'd re-use your original
1.8l 16v head because a) you already own it, and b) it will make a little
bit more hp than the 2.0l 16v head.
