Running without VVT Solenoid Valve

[k_Leo]

My K4M is comming to it's end after 200.000 miles, been thinking about repairing it or swap to the F4R non RS version.

Since all F4R have VVT and my K4M doesn't how would it affect to run the F4R on stock k4m ecu and disconnecting the vvt solenoid ?

Change the ecu and loom to f4r as i cant imagine it running well with stock k4m ecu

As above, get a 172 loom and ECU kit, then you can have the non RS k4m map uploaded

Mine is a ph1 1.6 16v with cable throttle body.
Better to get a ph1 172 loom and ecu ?

I would have thought so yes!
