Hello,

I've got a question about engine swap.
The engine I've got now is a 2.0 16v ABF engine and want to swap this for a 1.8 20vt.
Which engine codes will fit?
AGU, AYP will fit without much modification. Only a engine strut has to be replaced.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Where I'm really interested in is, will a BAM engine fit in a 6K with the same modifications as a AYP or AGU?
And what is the best option for changing the engine without a lot of extra costs, like changing gearbox and that kinda stuff.

Hope you guys van help me out.
Thnx in advance,

Roeltje
 
Thnx m0rk for your answer.

So your telling me that my gearbox will fit a 1.8 20VT?
Is it also possible to use the peddles (Gear peddle, brake peddle and gas peddle) for a 1.8 20VT on my gearbox?
Cause I've bought one and that's for electric controlled not cable

thnx.
 
You'll need to decide what engine management you're using - that'll determine if you can use the same accelerator pedal.

Your 02A gearbox is going to fit fine to any 1.8T
 
Thnx I know BAM is expensive.

Just looking for a good option, and what is best effort.
I can get a AYP engine and mount a K04 turbo on it.
But I'm not sure about the downpipe if that will fit properly.

@ m0rk thnx I didn't know that.
It depends on the engine I can get. So if it's electronic controlled I need a different gearbox than my own.
