Fit it along with an EGR Cheater that we sell via our shop. You can then totally remove the EGR valve.

What engine does it have fitted? Is it the Z22SE?

 

[ashley25]

Engine is an c22sel has some numbers after that.

 

[Matt]

Looks like the 2litre engine....wonder what the difference is??

 

[ashley25]

Its an 2.2 litre yes looks same as that

 

[Matt]

This is the 2 litre version we have over here : x20xev

Ok just found out the sump plug is the screw off one is chewed to sh! T so any ideas how im gonna get it off

 

[Matt]

Bolt removal kit like this?

I replaced my sump plug with a magnetic one that is now a simply 13mm bolt on the end rather than a torx fitment.

looks like a stroked x20xev to me
wiki info

Engines started from the 71 PS (52 kW) 1.6 L, Family 1 but eventually the 8-valve engines were all replaced by 16-valve powerplants. The 2.0 L Family II engine, with 136 PS (100 kW) was developed as a basis for touring car racing (later in Australia, 2.2 L 108 kW)

can't find any other info
no time need to fit stuff to my car lol

 

[ashley25]

So the 2.2 is a beast then? Lol
