    They're different. Which one do you need?

    I haven't done this myself, but I'm looking into it... Kjet throttle bodies can be found on some audis and porsche 924's. I think some of them are supposed to be an upgrade. Have a search for threads on here.

    A mate of mine's got a spare 200 quattro in his drive that he uses as spares for his road car (also a 200 quattro). I'm planning to nick his throttle body if it looks like it'll fit.

    I was reading an old copy of Golf+ tonight and one of the classifids had a Mk2 listed with Audi TB upgrade.

    I've just been reading through some threads ... consensus of opinion seems to be that it's mostly an upgrade for Mk1's... I'm still keen to see if the quattro one looks any better. I think the 924 one was an upgrade for the Mk1 because the butterfly valves open together, rather than sequentially... the old memory could be ropey there though.

    There are no upgrade throttlebodys for mk2s. The only difference between digi and kjet tbs, is the digi has a breather going into it.
    You can bore out the larger butterfly by 3.5mm
