If u allready have the super eta then just put an I head on so you will have oil passages for the i CAMS and an I intake for the larger runners and the i ecu ex. #173. And with this combination you will have compression under 9:1 so boost accordingly. Let me kno if u have more questions
and the m20 is extremly interchangable so its not if it will work but if it will benifit youLast edited by kenika65; 03-15-2010, 10:18 PM.

Alright well as long as it's under 9:1 then I don't want to go any lower. I'm curious to know though if flat pistons will work alright with the i head, lowering compression further? I'm sure this is where I need to stop asking questions and continuing reading....I'll stop bugging you now, thanks for the info :)sigpic

okay, i buy an I and swap the first post parts.. but while refreshing it- do i buy an I or Es timing belt? the marks for timing line up? use the same reference sensors? which head gasket and blck gasket kit should i buy? i ask because i'll be doing this relatively soon, so i need to know what i have to go out and buy..

lol you will find that the i is mostly the only thing available after market, like the intake gaskets are always i gaskets so like he said they are all the same so if anything ask for i parts.

but the i head has these already and is fed via the route for an eta, so the i will get the same press. of oil?- i was talking to my mechanic about finding my flywheel, and he mentioned an I wouldn't work because of the pick up points.. does this also then mean i should get an I tranny and bellhousing, because I'm planning on swapping in the entire IS harness, will my ref. point sensor and idle speed sensor no longer work? is it easier just to use my eta harness?

ok as for the tranny issue, no you dont have to change it you just wont use the flywheel sensors because the 1.1/1.3 harness uses a front crank sensor instead.
I sold my sensors for good money..
And as for the e harness throw it in the trash!

P.s. sorry for the pic quality, looked fine when I made it but I saved it as a bmp instead of a jpg so it looks like crap.
