mines gives alot more power from 4.5k onwards, difinatly noticable
fit a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold aswell for the lower-midrange power and yo will be pretty happy with the results id imagine

the c16xe is the same as the x16xe apart from the bigger ports in the head and the different inlet, to put an inlet on your c16xe you will need to buy a standard x16xe lower half of the inlet

nothing but if you want to fit an inlet kit you will need the lower half off an x14 or x16xe
