[quote][i]Originally posted by Fad[/i] Blimey this is getting a bit heated. I got to say there is a lot of talk about thew c16xe in pre production made 150-160 bhp and made the bigger engines looks silly. I feel this is nothing but hearsay as no one has or provided documented evidence of this. For a start if it did make this kind of power it would surely be a matter of just changing the inlet manifold and a couple of other tweask bobs your uncle done! However to get anywhere near 150 bhp you will have to do: TB's/inlet cams headwork exhaust/decat managment/mapping so IMO its bollocks that this engine made 150-160 bhp in pre production cases as it takes a hell of a lot to get it anywhere near that kind of power. Tuned small block XE's would be more agile to a track but i wouldnt say leagues above a 20XE. Also IMO the 20xe makes a better road car as its smooth delivers power at a nice comfortable rate (no need to rev the hell out of it) and lets all be honest who is actually going to tak their corsas on the track other than team broster/rob marriot? all depends what floats your boat [/quote]
