ive been told that the 2.0 8valve is about 115bhp and the x16xe is 104bhp so with a powerbox on should be about the bhp of the 2.0 8vavle but what would be the better setup for the road.
i know 8valve power is alot lower down that the 16v enignes.
is it worth putting an 2.0 8valve in?

I know it's chavy and not the best measure of performance, but my 1.6 with power box beat a 2.0 8v in a 0-100 sprint 3 times in a row by quite a distance each time
