Yes, I have a 2.slow. I was wandering how many parts I would need to make it a 16v. It is OBDII and I would like to keep the stock ECU.

Not possible...you will run into a lot of emissions problems plus you need different pistons, a 16v head which probably will not work with the stock 8v ECU

I heard the 16v head will bold on to the ABA block...
What if I just replaced the entire Engine? Would it be possible to hook up the stock ECU to the 16v engine?

This is what I want to do with my 16v. As far as the head goes, if you do get it to bolt up (with whatever you use to get the compression ratio right), you will also need to seal off the distributor hole (yea for DIS ignition!), and will need a coolant temp sensor that will thread into the the 16V head, but will output the proper info to the OBD-II ECU.
BTW, have a Bentley you could let me borrow?

We could be of mutual help to one another.

if you want to sell your aba, I'm interested

the only easy way it can be done is if you get a ABF 16v.. basicly a ABA with a 9a head with room for the diffrent sensors.. diffrent pistions are used to give clearences for the valves. hell I don't even know if they made that engine OBDII compatible.

You must get different pistons because 16v pistons have valve cut-outs for 4 valves.

I have one! I just got it to do my first project, brake pads. Apparantly I need some special tool to press in the calipers. Anywho, just tell me what else you need and I'll scan it and send it to you via e-mail.
Here are the OBD-I inputs:
-Camshaft position sensor
-mass air flow sensor
-engine speed and regerence sensor
-knock sensor
-heated oxygen sensor
-engine coolant temperature sender
-intake air temperature sensor
-EGR temperature sensor
-vehicle speed sensor
-A/C system
-battery
-data link connector
ViolentBlue, Im just throwing around ideas. If I can hook up a 16v engine to my Jetta maybe I will.

Hey, the camshaft position sensor is mounted within the ignition distributor. Where is it mounted on the ABF 16v? Could I use the ignition distributor on my ABA on tha ABF?

Same. No, you cannot use an 8V dizzy on a 16V but you may be able to mod(close other 3 windows or swap ABA style wheel) the 16V dizzy to work.
