I believe the person in question has a 1.8l CIS-E - He will probably not receive the benefits of Motronic injection. If he had Motronic, he would already have the 2.0l motor in his car. I should be more clear. He should try and find a CIS-E 2.0l car or two to test out. Clay

Before you do this swap, you should try to drive a couple of 2 liter's first as you may not like it. I would recc. going to a punched out 1.8l (a 1.9l) which will give you more power plus a nicer rev. If I was going to do my engine again, that is the route I would take. >> - Clay, this is not true. I know we've talked about this before. Your car has some issues, most other CIS-E 2.0L owners are happy with how their motors rev. PLUS, that's CIS-E! You CANNOT argue in any way that a Motronic injected 2.0L doesn't rev as well as a 1.8. I've owned every configuration of VW 16Vs, and the Motronic 2.0L definitively has the broadest, smoothest powerband of the lot. Come drive my car and you will see. - A 2.0 will spank and re-spank a 1.8 or a 1.9L.
