    to 16 valve your car you need: Engine, Unlocked ECU, Loom. you can use your current gearbox without a problem.

    also you need the little things like oil,s and you better off doing cambelt and clutch whilst engines out.

    Can get another 8valves put into the vtr head - if you've got a 25mm drill bit and a shed then easy to do . . . . .

    Just reffers to putting the 16v engine out of the VTS/GTi in.
