So as most people know ive been running 16v for about a year now (well 2 actually..).. and I thought I may aswell make a thread as to my thoughts and opinions on them and hopefully others will pipe up with their opinions/experiences
Ive finally decided to go back to 8v.. not because I want to go boosted but because of the hassle ive had mixed with how much of a pita It is to work on in situe..and if im honest how ugly the 16v engine is in the cento bay..
Dont get me wrong but the power and delivery is great fun and the 'out of the box' power is too.. but I miss the noise.. simplicity and the look of the 8v engine in the cento bay
most people will agree the 16v is good for easy power upgrades.. but whos actually lived with the 1.2 or 1.4 16v for more then a few months and actually got a good bit of feedback??
I must admit.. I cant wait to get the 8v grumble back
