Is a standard c20let engine faster than a c20xe on tb's ( in a corsa). I know theres a big horse power difference between the two but ive been told the tb'd car is alot more responsive.
Has anybody raced the two against each other?

its not the throttle bodies that would fail.... its the other components that may not have been replaced when the upgrade was done. Like when tuning a c20toilet
i'd go for a TB'd c20xe.... but depends on the cams etc.... just TB's on a std engine would get roasted by a std c20toilet
