2.0 16V Twin Spark engine is very technical it has - 2 cams, 8 spark plugs, 16 valves, 2 balancing shafts, 9 belt pulleys and variable valve timing system,
which gives 90% of its torque at 2000 rpm. Has 2 spark plugs per cylinder.

Not that quick, not sure of power? 1.6 won't be anything to write home about, usual sort of power for a 1600 engine.

The 1.6 is ok to drive- the 2.0 is nicer but the V6 rocks! I'll try to find some power figures for you...
