iirc f16 is better for acceleration, f20 for top end...

f16 might get a little annoying 70-80 on a motorway

Not really comparable as completely different box. Depends on the spec of the engine there boilted to, a f28 on a standard xe will be a waste of time.

f16 is fine for every day use. its not that high at 3-4k ive used an f16 on my let and the ratios are pretty good for drag, topped out at around 140-ish

there are 2 f16s a close ratio as fitted to astra gte and wide ratio as fitted to bog std cavs with ne engines

if your after acceleration you want the cr the long is worse than the f20

The F16CR isn't too bad on the motorway at speed. My dad has a F16CR on his SEH and on the motorway he get 70mph come up at around 3100rpm
