Subject: Digifant II... ?

Hi folks,

Just picked a German made '89 Jetta with the "PF" high compression
1.8L.  Bentley says it has the Digifant II fuel injection system...

How similar is the Vanagon system Digifant F/I to what's in this
Jetta..?

### There are a lot if similarities and a lot of improvements with the
Digifant II system as compared to the Digifant I system.

Will a Digitool work with this system?

### The Vanagon Digitool will NOT work with this system as the pinouts to
the ECU are very different.  However, it is possible to make a Digitool (II)
system for it if you attach things to the right pins on the ECU.

Can I use one the Aussie power chips?

### No totally different ECU.

What magazine would be most helpful in upgrading this new edition to my
fleet (I've been out of the Sport compact scene for so long, I don't
know what is out there anymore...)

### European Car would be your best bet.

Especially looking for input from you Tuners out there....

### There are a few things that you can do to that 1.8L Digifant II to give
it more power.  Chips are not available for this system that I know of - no
big deal as there is still lots you can do.  I would suggest getting a
Techtonics exhaust system before any other modification - good for the
torque.  After that a 266 or a 268 cam will wake up the top end on these
engines quite nice.  You 105hp motor can do 120+hp with these two mods.

If anything ever happens to the body or tranny of this car, the engine
will most assuredly be transplanted into one of my '83.5 Westies...

### They make great upgrades to your Westie!

            TIA
