Will a 1.9 DG exhaust fit a 2.1 DJ engine?

Big lumps of metals and spanners.

Im thinking of an engine exchange, and hoped the same exhaust can be used? JK seem to have different types....

I reckon so as both are the same externally, not sure what effect it would have on the power output though.

Yes.. either the early type or the late types... the DG has a warm air take off for the carb..

But as I said in a prev post.. you can swap all your DG carbetc over to the 2.1 block and have good performance.. saves messing about getting the Fi in wired up and plumbed in..

Nice one toomany that sounds interesting, Im looking at an Elite VW change for 1.9DG to 2.1DJ. Any thoughts?
