1.6 16v out of an M reg. and is totaly stripped
Was bought for a project including modded golf gti throttle body.
It is 100% complete, including starter, alternator, loom,ECU (no gearbox) but you will need things like a head gasket and bolts etc.
I MAY sell the golf throttle body conversion kit seperate, or will split the lot if enough interest.
Will deliver West Yorkshire area.
Offers around £300 the lot

Not a lot at the minute!
Im not sure, i know the t/b is good for massive power tho, as it changes the total air inlet length from six foot to about 1 foot!

It all has run, the engine and t/b are from different cars, but the t/b was running on an identical engine.
I did not make the t/b, apparantly it was in a vaux mag a few years ago, and it was modded by a top machinist and the engine fitted in a nova.
I could find out wot power it was kickin out if you wanted.

But would the whole inlet sytems bolt straight up and plug in fine on a x14xe?

It would, but you'd need a map sensor vacum line, and the lower inlet to bolt on aswell, the runners are larger in the 1.6 so low end torque possibley midrange would be affected

Years ago i put the injection system from a 1.6 8v gte nova onto a 1.4 sr engine, loads of people said it woudnt work,
But it worked perfect, and it was as fast as fcuk (for a 1.4)
Anyway i will sell all bits to do conversion for £150 collected, or just t/b for £100 collected.
