Im gonna tell Ford that i want a 1.6 fitted in my focus cos its a better design than my 2.0l 16V ST170 engine

A ST170 will only manage a 16- 16.5 sec and has 70bhp gain, a higher rev limit and alot more torque than a 1.6. Wake up and smell the coffee pal, infact theres a 400+ bhp RST forsale on Ebay, if you think a 1.6 does a 17 sec 1/4 then you'll believe that RST is 400bhp and a bargain

Hello!
I'm new here and i know this thread is very old. I was wondering, is there any difference between 1.6 zetec-s and 1.6 zetec-se on 1/4 of a mile ? As in, one is ford made and the other one is yamaha-mazda-ford made.
I have a 1.6 zetec-se (*estate
) ) and i managed a 17.3 1/4 mile with winter tyres and almost no grip at lunches above 2000 rpm.
Sorry for my bad english, is not my native language.

I doubt there's much in it over a 1/4 mile, if anything the difference can probably be made by the drivers at the wheel. Cant see how they've be miles apart.
