Not going down the 2.3 route either mate, i want to keep it 2.0L
Yes i'm a fussy bugger!
you should still see a fair amount of power from it though mate.
guy called Rallyslag on FEOC-uk built one, again to much the same
spec as you are talking, and i think it made about 190
the thing i think they found was.
the engine is mounted like all front wheel drive cars,
but the inlet is at the back of the engine,
this means that the trumpet length/manifold length
on the throttle bodies ( crutial to getting the power i believe?)
is compromised, as the bulkhead/heater blower etc get in the way.
