C16XE is still an Ecotec, just doesn't have the front secondary air intake on the manifold, has plastic upper inlet manifold (tat), and slightly larger ports (hence the amazing 3bhp difference) | |

Are the differences between the X16XE & C16XE the EGR Valve (in X16XE) and the ECU? | |

I'd go for as later GSI you can find, with low miles. Doesn't really matter which engine. | |

Im very happy with mine. Seems spot on for daily driving as your never short on power for normal driving and with standard suspension they are super comfy and dont handle too badly. | |

Which is more than the X16 would produce with the same mods | |

Engines have a lot of potential, and easily upgradeable, there underpowered as std in my opinion. | |
