Quick question, are the exhaust ports on a 1.8l BP engine round or oval? Im thinkin of using this on my 2.0 (heard it would work?) but my exhaust gasket has oval ports and im worried about the turbulence that would cause. Here is a pic of it :

OBX makes good stuff. Bolt the flange up to the head and use a rotory tool to shape the flange to the same shape as the exhaust port.
