I've tried searching this and looking for tech articles but haven't had much luck. Sorry if this has been covered already.
I have a 1.7 with functioning factory FI. I have a parts 1.8 which I plan to build into a 2056. If I wish to run the larger motor with D-jet, what FI components of mine can be retained....and what exactly am I going to have to source to make the system work with the larger displacement? I'd like to start collecting parts as I come across them. Thanks! |

I think he is saying it would run lean but not with the green 2.0L injectors. As you say it will run out of air with the small runners and plenum before going to lean. Porsche figured this out in 1972 with the first 2.0L engine after VW said it couldn't be built.

Porsche figured this out in 1972 with the first 2.0L engine after VW said it couldn't be built. what geoff said. i just know that before doing my 2056, i talked to several 2056 owners that used UN modified 2.0 d-jet and leaned/pinged thier motors to major piston damage. other than the troublesome air flow valve, i always wondered why L-jet on the otherhand hasn't been used more as it's more excepting of fuel needs |
