I have a 2002 GTI 138hp that I am currently getting ready for a road worthy and I was thinking because I have an exhaust manifold,
Cat and intermediate pipe and injectors for a GTI 180 is it worth fitting them to this engine or will it just massively over fuel. It is the early injection system MM4.8P with cable operated throttle body which I believe has a 55mm butterfly but I could be wrong if I don’t increase the amount of air going in it’s probably pointless fitting the other parts to gain power so I was wondering has anyone played around with trying to fit a bigger aftermarket throttle body or I could fit a 180 manifold and modify the throttle so it is cable operated. It’s just an idea at the moment but I thought I would post it on here to get some feedback and your thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
David
