and then some were just screwed on the throttle body
so it depends

and i figured you would need the ecu

and i cant see the damages

i found a head to do the mini me but there is too much stuff that i would need for the mini me swap

i already have a head kit for a b7 and i already have the head for the b7 swap all i need is the rocker arms

and i have the b8 valve cover so it will make people think twice bout how slow it is...

and besides i am going to use it as a dd and i need it done asap

i get paid on the 15th and will be able to go junk yard hopping to find my rocker arms ecu and radiator
