xe for shear thought 1.6 with cams and inlets, will stil struggle to reach 150bhp figure.

Xe is less hassle, and tbh prob more appealing when selling it imo.

Stil less power then xe unless you wanna start spending money on polishing, porting, carbs, and then you have to start thinking about custom inlets.
