^^thanks. Im selling my msp vc to a member. And he was wondering if it would fit his car. He has a 1.8l engine. So ur saying it should fit fine?
I got a p5 vc on my car now so this doesnt apply to me. Just trying to help that dude out.
it will fit, but there could be issues with spark plug boots.
When i had the MSP VC and used the 1.8L coilpack setup, i would get a bad misfire once in awhile cause the MSP VC has a lip around the holes where the spark plugs go. Since those lips are there it wasnt getting a good and secure connection from my wires to my plugs cause the boots for the 1.8L wires sit flush on top of the VC.
This my 1.8L VC, you can see how its flush at the top of the holes where the boots go to connect to the spark plugs.

Here is a VC forcefed PCed, you can see the lips im referring too.
but yes the VC will bolt up fine and either gasket will work, but you want to make sure that the coilspack setup is ok.
