Technical What is a Starjet?

[portland_bill]

Just need a bit of info.

Am looking at MES, with regard to a Grande Punto 1.4. I'm offered 1.4 8v, or 1.4 16v T-Jet/StarJet.

I know the turbo model is the T-Jet.

Am I correct to assume that the non-turbo is a StarJet? Could a 1.54 16v be anything else?

Thanks

starjet has a modified top end of engine, has flaps in inlet manifold and ports split in to two.
has a variably cam pulley fed by oil using a solonoid.

Basically a starjet is just the 1.4 16v non-turbo engine in the Grande.

It's Nigel from South Oxfordshire. But born on Portland, back in the dark ages, and had to think of something when originally joined the forum. Portland Bill, is the southernmost tip of Portland, big lighthouse, cafe, lots of rocks, always windy. Why do i now live so far from the sea?
