Hello everyone,
I own a 1994 VW Vento 1.6l, engine code ABU, and I would like it do about 100hp instead of 75 without engine swap/forced induction.
I was thinking about swapping the cylinder head and manifolds for some 16v multipoint ones and install a MegaSquirt on it.
I have a few questions about all this to decide whether it is worth to do
How many HPs will I get after removing the cat (we have no strict exhaust regulations here in Armenia and not so good fuel for it to work as intended)?
How much power can I gain with only ECU swap?
What head/manifolds/etc can I use on the ABU block?
