1.6 Engine 76kw To 85kw

Recommended Posts

Guest soo

Hi

 

I've got '85 year 1.6 GTI with 76 kw engine. But this is not enough anymore. Since '87 came out a new engine with 85 kw. If I have understood correctly, the only change in the engine was new cylinder head? So if I replace the current head with the newer version, does it increase the power to 85? Or are there something else to change like ECU?

 

I have done some search in the forum but haven't find any topic like that. Does anybody have an experience with this or at least can lead me to some earier thread?

 

Thanks

Bigger valves and bigger cam. Someone like QEP could sort it out for you.
