:lol:



he means the PSA 1.6 but Joff does not understand that a 2.0L into a saxo/106 is not easy and requires more than dropping it in

Yes but no torque.

Nice around town, but needs pushing when on motorways.

none really - the gsi came with 2 diff engines, the ecotec 1.6 and redtop 1.6

the redtop has 3 more bhp and a subsequent slightly quicker 0-60 time.

the ecotec engine from the gsi is the exact same on as found in the sport :P
