I'm putting either a 2.016v or 2.08v with throttle bodies into my Gsi. Will i get more response from the 8v bottom end? Any suggestions and advice would be much appreciated. If anyone has or knows where i can get a step by step guide to do the swap, that will be very helpful too. Cheers

basically you have to do the same amount of work for both. and need the same parts so go for the 16v engine

like they said - 16v.
and like it says on ste's footer...

he knows everything, its common knowledge on here - if you have a problem you ask ste.



the name is misleading - because i am not called wisewood.

year smoother than the 8v, but I'm told not as much tourqe as the 8v not sure how true this is though!

8v is a lot cheaper to buy though so great if you're short on cash.
