i might just get sport then and put GSi bumpers on, seems to be that the sports have a few more perks to them

infact I think y can modify the head so it will be the same as gsi but want to know myself if the higher compression rate is due to different piston or the design of head !

they are the same but due to higher (minimum) compression ratio and head design y may get bit bhp more

is there much difference in these? apart from the interior and bumpers, is there big difference in the engines? and how they can be tuned?

any help will be great
