GTi has ABS... styling on a GTi is subtle and ripe.... dated? no... look way better... and no GTi's are very rare. VTS's aint THAT common... but more around than GTi's.

i feel u want a car that drives itself rather than a drivers car, an evo 4 or 5 doesnt have abs or traction control pure drivers cars

I have to say, i think the 1.8 SRi engine is a pile of poo. But then i heard a rhumour about the 1.4 SRi and tuning mods coming by Mantzel, and im 99.9999999% sure Vauxhall have done it again, restricted the power by a pants inlet manifold.

Latest claims from Mantzel, from the 1.4 16v SRi lump, is around 140bhp with new Mantzel box, cams, and Mantzel exhaust (complete inc manifold). 90bhp - 140bhp??? So the 1.8 16v, 125bhp - ???? Got to be in the 160's at least as its got such a bigger displacment.

Gets you thinking doesn't it

Same as what it would for the older X14 and X16 lumps i should imagine. Prob about £500 for the box, £300 for manifold.

AS i said before, dont look at what a caris standard. Look at what it can become

U could say, well,. how much is TB going to cost to get 30bhp froma 2.0litre. Lots, but then there loads of people that have done it
