Does anyone know the spec for a BMW 318i?

Is it a 1.9 litre 22 valve or is it 16 valve?

How much bhp do you think it would give.

Oh i thought it might have been 22 valve. I would have thought if its 1.9 litre 16 valve it wouldnt be that slow. I mean how slow is it compared to a vtr or a corsa sport?

I wouldnt get it to be a sports car but as long as its fairly nippy.

Ive driven
316 318 320 323 328 325tds
520 525 528 540
728
Z3 1.9

Thesee all E36 models, I havnt driven the E46 yet. One thing surprised me, out of all these cars the desil 325tds was the closest to the 540, My friend who owned it a few yrs back had a hybrid turbo, larger intercooler chipped etc. and was very impressive for a desil.
