Vauxhall 2.0L XE Taper Throttle 290+bhp Kit
For 2.0 Litre 16V XE & LN Engine
Exhaust manifold type needed to run this with this kit *C-2.0L-XE

This upgrade of the 2.0L range includes an ultra lightweight steel crank, a dry sump system, slipper pistons & steel rods. This kit includes a Vauxhall XE cylinder head with CNC portwork with 35mm & 31mm valves & uses +2mm diameter & 7mm stem valves. The inlet manifold also has CNC portwork.

It also uses the latest ECU, the MBE992, which comes ready programmed & ready to run, however we would recommend a mapping session to fine tune the engine. The MBE992 is capable of running Barometric sensing, Alternator sensing (tells alternator not to charge except when throttle is closed - reducing the load on the engine when accelerating), Direct firing coils (each spark plug has its own coil), Launch control, Traction control (with the addition of the MBE998), Lambda control, Radiator fan control, Electric Water Pump control, please see MBE9A4 web page for more details
