I know a 2.1 throttle body from a vanagon is a popular option for say a 2270 build or better... and there does not seem to be a need for upgrading the stock 2.0L fuel injectors when using it BUT, since I need a set of injectors anyway, would the following be a good option? What would be the pro's/cons? :

So, am I understanding that the 1.8 plenum has more volume than a 2.0 plenum... and that a 2.1 vanagon plenum is a better option over either of those (in this situation, if modified to move the TB port)?

The 1.8 plenum dosent have more volume, but it is a better layout (less turbulent) than the 2.0 914 plenum.

The 2.0 bus plenum is larger than the 1.8 and is of the same design as the 1.8 however the intake runners are narrower.

The 2.1 vanagon plenum isnt a direct fit, and requires modification. The intake runners from a vanagon wont fit on a 914 so you wind up having use 914 runners and i havent seen one done where the transition from plenum to runners winds up being at all clean. Neither one is properly sized for a 2.3 so for the small difference in volume i lean towards the 1.8 plenum for the cleaner and easier install.
The later (larger) 2.1 50mm throttle body can be adapted to the 1.8 914 plenum though.
