i am gonna do it!!! i have a mark 2 car but it has the mark one engine i think. it is a 2000 vtr any my mate has a 2002 and his airbox is different. i know i need a mark one engine but what do i do about the keypad for the immobiliser? also are the exhaust ports the same on a vtr as vts? i have a 4-2-1 manifold and would like to put that on there.cheers

Two types of silver top engine one is 90bhp one is 98bhp (2001 onwards)

That would explain the difference in airboxes

The manifold wont fit a VTR off a VTS (visa versa)

To change engine from yours to a VTS depending on how many plug ECU you have will to change the loom (I think)

Single plug to single plug = straight swop
Single plug to different plug = new loom

I'm almost certain please feel free to correct

use the same plug loom as what your car is already fitted with otherwise it'll be a wiring nightmare. ie, 1 plug - 1 plug, 3 plug - 3 plug

cant use the same manifolds either.
