GTE is the early performance model
GSI is the later one..


both had same engine's e16se, untill the late J/K reg gsi's where they got a c16se, with had no afm and it had a cat fitted

both engine's make exactly the same amount of power too

Praise the lord you are here

E16SE is found in both GTE & GSi, the E16SE in the GSi runs a different ECU though, a Bosch one rather than Siemens.

Like Ste rightly says, the later GSi's were fitted with the C16SE with no AFM and a CAT.

yep, the late one's used a MAP sensor like on the 8v SRi's - basically it's look's nearly identical to the 1400 8v MPI engine


also, if i remember right, im sure there's two variation's of the early e16se too, slightly diff wiring and ecu on them
