really nice cars and can pick them up v cheap. Lower it, 17s/18s and full zprst system and you'll have one sweet car. 167bhp as standard :D







supercharger!!!! on a 1.6 16v Xsara though :(

Wouldn't think 200bhp would be too hard to reach just have to give it a :-

Full System exhaust (Decat)
Viper Filter (Induction kit)
Cam's
Daztec

Fit a Full system exhaust and a filter and you will happily get around 180bhp as has been proved by a few that i know of :)

The S16 is 155bhp and the last incarnation of the mi-16 engine. The Gti-6 and Xsara VTS use the newer 2.0 167bhp lump.

Yes they handle superbly, same engine as the 306 Gti-6 except there is more power at the wheels as its going through a 5 speed box as oppossed to the Gti`s 6 speed. Dont know what the kerb weight is but never know a citroen of this class to be heavy? pugs and citroens probably lighteset cars in their class right across the range. Only thing going agaisnt it is that its often viewed as being ugly, WRC kit would look superb though.

anyone got any opinions on these.

mainly intested in the handling aspect.

sounds good on paper but cant decide on the handling?

and anyone know of any bodykits for these?
