I think the Euro-spec 5-cylinder atmo engines are good for about 160 HP
stock, Vs 115 HP here in the states. You should easily be able to get
back up to 160 HP with a cam, higher compression and typical
tuner-tricks. With a bit more work, polishing & porting, etc. you should
be able to get a reliable 180-200 HP. Yeah.....that'll make those
beemer drivers wonder..... :)
