X3 with LC 1.6

[GregsterGSi]

now that I have my X3... yes i found one in under 24h . I plan on swapping in the spare 04 1.6L I have around.

Unlike others I won't bother posing the issue about "how do i hook up the maf" or other lame questions. The beauty about it is that everything seems plug n play

but I do have one question. Has anyone else ever seen this?

what is the comparison between that and the 2.0l that people usually do as far as power and the actual swap job i also have an x3 but mine is 4 door

I like that idea. Is there an advantage to using a 1.6 transmission? Does a 1.6 transmission work with the X3 axles?

One other thing, does the 1.6 have a higher red line than the 1.5? If so, then you would need to use a 1.6 ECU.
