WR1 Heads
Do WR1 use AVCS heads or normal heads?

WR1's are essentially a 2.0L STi so they have AVCS.

Solenoids, wiring etc + an ECU that can control it (ie Solaris, Hydra).

Anyone know the specific name of the sensor/doodaa thing that is located on top of the gearbox that senses which gear you are in?

Off-topic slightly? There isn't a sensor that "senses what gear you're in", but there is a neutral position switch. Is that what you meant?

I will contact the mapper - he mentioned today there is a slight issue with the AVCS in that the variable timing effect tails off occasionally in 3rd and 4th gear, but not 5th/6th.

The faulty NPS usually causes the AVCS to switch off, leaving you with a smooth powerless STI, (relatively...)
