Karl, I have done this before and the AFM will swap over no problem. However trying to use the 2.1l air box is too tight and actually pushes against the two coolant hoses in the engine bay (no fun). I modified a 1.9l air box and attaches the 2.1l AFM to it. Worked excellent and seemed to give the 1.9l more power (probably just in my mind). Just FYI.

Has anyone ever tried a 2.1 AFM in a Digijet system? Just curious if it works, the larger air filter would be nice in the conversion I am finishing up. BTW, reusing the 2.1 cooling system complete is VERY easy into the 1.9 body. A no-brainer, well, for me anyway.
