2.0L Turbocharged HatchJust a small update.
I have a new engine coming in next week, a 2007 2.0L motor with 31000 kms.
I also ordered an MLS head gasket, a set of ARP head studs and a 4 puck carbon kevlar clutch kit with a 1500lb pressure plate.

New engine? Why?
HIS 2.0 has main seal issues.. and now a head gasket..
Very nice and interesting. I have a opel(vauxhall) corsa with a 2l 16v motor, its done often here and turbo is more common
What is your 2.0 motor? Is it gm made? Ecotech or etech II?
Is it an 8valve?
I saw 1 or two aveos with the same motor i have(c20xe - 110kw to 115kw then a south african only 125kw, i have that 1).

should you not drop the compression ratio? That might be why the head gasket blew. Over here we pocket the pistons or get low comp ones. Also people fit a thicker head gasket.Originally Posted by Nemasys

The gasket blew because i ran the car at 6 psi on the stock ecu and tune.
The engine had a bad main crank seal so i dont really care what happens to it, it had to be changed anyways.
The motor is from the Chevy Optra found in Canada or the Suzuki Forenza found in the States.

what year is your original engine swap out of again? i just noticed the 2007 posted above, i though your original swap was older than that.
what year range were those engine (code?)
The old one is a 2004, the 2007 is a newer version with electronic throttle body and stuff, i will have to swap my throttle body from my old engine.

Don't wanna change stuff around to use the electronic TB?

Hell NO! That is the worst thing they have put on cars ever.Don't wanna change stuff around to use the electronic TB?
Even if someone would give me the entire system to make it work for free i would throw that crap in the garbage. You will never get the same throttle response and "feel" you get with a cable driven throttle than an electronic throttle body.
Someday i wont have a choice to use it because all the new cars are coming out with this system. I wouldnt mind having it on my daily driver, but a modified car, cable driven throttle for the win!!!
