Throttle Body

Post by Andrew B »

A cheap and cheerful way many k series users have upgraded the engine BHP is to use the throttle body off the 1.8 on the 1.4, is anything like this possible with the Polo?

Cannot be done. It is because the 1.2 12 valve is a newish 'stand alone' designed engine, so to speak, the bigger engines are not based on smaller breathren like the K series is, which is a shame, the only way would be with some seriously expensive parts :cry:
So, will have to stick to optimax and a K&n :lol:
