I was planning on doing the conversion the way I've read by basically putting the 1.9 WP/cooling pipes on, keeping the 2.1 plenum and using the 1.9 t-body. What I didn't plan on was getting ALL the other bits for the 2.1, ECU, harness, airbox, exhaust, etc. Can I run the 2.1 ECU, t-body and airbox and such in place of the 1.9 bits? I know I'll be putting on a new 1.9 WP and keeping the cooling system the same, and removing the 2.1 oil cooler. Brendan |
