You will have to replace many of the hoses on the van too. It isn't worth the trouble, there is no difference in the cooling ability, the 2.1 system is just more complicated. Regarding the EFI, both work equally well, why bother to switch? The Digifant and Digijet systems are very similar, with the Digifant slightly cleaner while warming up.
