x16xe meets lower emissions regs than z16xe, and seeing as the z16xe is newer it probably makes more power being a newer engine

I have a Z16XEP in my astra and its not a bad engine as such, but performance parts for it seem to cost the earth!

[Spelling Nazi] Woundering? Its fucking wondering! Woundering isn't a word for a start but wound = hurt [/Spelling Nazi]

Inlet and exhaust mods would see gains, not sure on how much but a lad on PNG has 140 BHP from inlet and exhaust mods on a C16XE (proven on a RR which even surprised him although he does admit he's doubtful of it)
