sorry to be the one to say NO.

the 1.5 and 1.6 are from the same 'family' of motors and the 1.8, 2.0, and 2.2 are from a separate family'. this goes for the SOHC's and the DOHC's.

the upside is that they can use the same transmissions.

one thing that can throw a wrench in things is the motor and transmission mount brackets but i'm in the process of getting that squared away.

thanx for the info , but i have done it to the nubi engine , swaped the mount to the lanos mount , so i assumed its possible with the leggy engine

the 1.6 Nubi and the 1.5/1.6 Lanos is the same but the 2.0 Nubi and the 2.0/2.2 Leganza are way too different. you will need a different front mount bracket.

so is it possible 2 use the mount bracket from the 1.5 on the 2.0?

The 2.0L and 1.5L/1.6L mounts are different and not interchangeable.

As for inserting the 2.0L I have to ask why you would want to go through all that hassle considering you've allready turboed your 1.5L

Honestly..... a 2.0L turbo will most likely exceed your transmission handling capacity right away.

Personally... I would insert some lower compression pistons (if you don't have them allready) and turn up the boost a little further.

I would have to guess that as you approach 15psi of boost you will start to reach the limit of your gearbox.

hey woo sleeper, what are you using to tune the car. it seems lkike it is running really good. are you detonating at all?
are you using emanage, or safc?

don't know how did i miss that post!

how far is the swap progect now man? did you resolve the locked ECU issue yet?

i suppose you got the D20 tranny as well with the engine... turboing the 2.0 on the D16 tranny will probably kill it in no time

as for (shapinoweno) Question about the management im using Perfect Power Smt6 piggyback , the car doesnt lean out or miss fire or detonate i upgraded the injectors and also added a r.r.f.r and use cold plugs . in the vid it was running 7psi on 92 oct
