Hi,
Was trying to avoid turbo power - I believe in n/a power for long term purposes !
My thoughts are that a pinto won't be fast enough and the XE needs a lot of money throwing at it for good power ?
The S2000 lump is 235bhp standard and very reliable, a set of throttle bodies can improve further and / or modify the vtec to come in at 5000rpm
Am I correct in my thoughts ?
