Audi 80 4 Cylinder using a VW 16V ECU?



    Is it possible or has anyone tried running a VW Passat, GTI, or Jetta
GLI 16V ECU with an 80 4 cylinder 8V motor?  I remember seeing a mention of
using a KE-Jetronic 16V ECU in an 8V application is possible with VW's.  The
benefit seemed to be an extended red-line, 6,200 extended to 7,300!
    KE-Jet and KE-Motronic are extremely similar except the timing is
controlled by a map in KE-Motronic.  I'd be worried about the timing map
being extremely different in the KE-Motronic 16V ECU than my 8V ECU.  Anyone
tried this or got any advice?

Thanks!
