I am converting my 1.8 to a factory 2.0 with an engine swap with harness and ECU. Will my resistor pac from my 1.8 work for the 2.0?

Porsche, or Bosch, noticed that it wasn't such a good idea to cut the spark to limit the RPMs when you have a catalyst in the exhaust. Because cutting the spark means you have fuel still going through the engine, and the catalyst gets nice and hot... Wanna guess what can happen there?

So they implemented the rev limiter by cutting the fuel. I believe the limiter interrupts the signal from the trigger points when they start signaling too quickly.
