    if the 1.8 is the same as your 1.8 then yes, but you'll have alot of compression, and wont be able to run alot of boost

    correct me if i am wrong but isnt the GL block a EA, while the L block is an EJ. which means you will need a tranny converter plate.

    Correct Dynapar; he'd need the adapter plate between the bellhousing halves.

    An EJ22 NA would give you more power than an EA82T and bolt upto your current tranny.
