Cool, so.... A 2.5 5 cyl 20v making 150 hp....... That's 60 HP/L ..... ok,
again, I cannot see anyone in this country (uk) wanting to buy such an
underpowered, and in this country, huge displacement engine..... surely it
must be for the american market...in the uk every major manufacturer has
been making 150+hp from 2L multi-valve engines for 15+ years... even the 1.8
16v golf was 139 HP....... It seems all a bit strange to me.  Although
saying that ill have one!!!! Im sure with wilder cams, a free exhaust and a
new efi box, that would be a 200+hp motor allday..... its got to be......
