    in short yes it will bolt on and work,

    but

    the mk1 vtr head will have inlet port spacings of 00-00 and i think your mk2 furio will have port spacings of 0-0-0-0, which in short just means you will have to use the vtr inlet and if you speak to samueljonburgess he will tell you how to adapt your furio loom to work with the vtr inlet, which apparently is very easy, but i could very well be wrong and your inlet may fit on to the vtr head (but if you've got the vtr inlet you might as well use it weather your inlet fits or not)

    also id use the vtr exhaust manifold, but again it will bolt on but, the mk1 vtr's have one lambda sensor and mk2 vtr's have two so your furio may have two but all you have to do is sleeve the second lambda sensor (which tricks the ecu in to thinking that the lambda sensor is plugged in

    to be honest if your going to all this trouble id be tempted to fit the S1 106 rallye head and inlet, or just fit the vtr engine, would be very simple if you have basic knowledge of engines

    or even better fit the vtr engine with a rallye head and inlet lol

    Going to look at the vtr later I recon I can get the bits off it cheap so I might take the inlet , manifold and head. Would there be any difference in performance?

    apparently just by using the vtr inlet helps will only gain a couple bhp (with the inlet) but it should make a noticeable difference, like i say its best to have a little chat with samueljonburgess he'll tell your first hand whats its like

    if you want to tune your 1.4 8valve look at these links.

    I recon it would be a good mod, the valves are the same size but porting is bigger
