The best thing about the 1.8 is its weight. I cannot stress how well the car handles with a lighter engine!
The gti6 handles great but the xs is in a different league.
If 150hp can be achieved using standard parts then this would be a very fun car.
I'm desperate to get the RFS inlet on it purely for the noise (the real reason for all this faffing around).
I reckon a supercharger would be good on this engine. Would be easy to do I would have thought if using a lynx kit. Probably cheaper than a turbo setup too.
