Why do a 2.2??? Seems totally pointless to me, will make absolutely no difference in power over a 2.0 or 2.1

Only reason id ever run 2.1 is to use cheaply availible Mahle pistons, but ideally, Id be using a Std over 0.5mm oversize bore.

Capacity is pretty irrelevent on a turbo engine, especially when we are talking ~100cc difference!
