    16v

    Coming in a little late on this topic but years ago a 16v swap into a Digi golf 2 was all the go.Use the stock injectors and custom fuel rail and everything else just worked fine.The O2 sensor would keep the mixture in check.This is all a bit academic as Loon has taken a T4 engine from me already and fitted it.

    Yes thats true, but I have a couple of people with digi Mk2s who want to 16v em, but keep the injection system as it is. Custom fuel rail seems like the GO.

    I've also been reading in to this, it seems like alot of guys in the US are doing the digi conversion for the 16v. That 16v digi faq on vortex is gold the same guy also has this site http://www.dubbase.2ya.com/ fully documenting his conversion.

    There is a couple of things guys were saying such as using a BMW maf unit which has more flow and will supply the 16v a lot better then a standard unit.

    But everything else seems pretty straight forward, i just ordered a bentley manual online for a mk2 and am thinking this is a good way to go with it.

    Yeah I reckon a custom fuel rail and use the digi is the way to go bro.
    I did a heap of research on this and the fuel rails are $100 US.

    Seems like an easier way to go with it, and you don't no until you try, guys on vortex seem to have great success with it.
