All cabling is the same for what I need. Engine will run its original t series setup. Diesel ecu removed and blanked off canbus system is hacked and all setup to except T series sensors ipk is diesel at the min as I don't have a zt petrol fascia. But the t series only revs to the max displayed on the diesel one anyway so no issues there. I am even trying to keep the diesel heater with remote red diesel tank. Its just the fuel tank internals that are a pain. The fuel system is boosted by a 044 pump so flow and pressure is no problem.

Why not?. The t16 is cheap reliable and very powerfull. And when I had a t16 in a zs it was far cheaper on fuel than the zs180. So a zt 190 was never a option. The 1.8t is nice but is a eco engine not a sporty engine unlike the t16.

There are no pictures yet as its just my project and well most people with theses cars sadly just are not that interested.
