right now you 2 are putting roughly the same whp down ~160whp, he's lighter and longer gear ratio's so hes in boost much with a bigger turbo that doesn't run out of steam 700rpm-1k rpm before redline, and you just end up having to shift more in you're 6spd causing you to build boost again...I'd give the W to spock as it stands but it'd be close i'll give you that. anything more than 8-10 and you won't stand a chance.

Damn Mike, that bites. Probbably easier just to source a used 1.8, they are only a few hundred bucks and typically run very strong. Do you know why it went?

i don't think he wants a 1.8 he'd a new turbo manifold, and couldn't reuse the HEad he has, or the MSPNP, it'd be a lot to replace just for that. 1.6's are pretty reliable and they are really cheap.

I have no experience with the 1.6 but I remember before I even got mine I was researching and people said the 1.8 is a little stronger, then again, hard to really measure this. I thought spock had switched to a 1.8 after the first motor went.

1.6L or 1.8L, they suck either way. 1.6L's are cheaper.
Not sure what I'm going to do yet, picking up another car to drive first.
