Do you have this engine in a nova?
There not really much else you can do without spending a lot of money, you can get a mantzel type inlet tho for about ?200.
Lol at baxter, its only about 3bhp less power than a x16xe. :thumb:

maxpower is for gays. would a total vauxhall sticker make a difference do ye think?
Not on a Subaru!!!
The quickest way of getting more power out of a X16 XEL is to get rid of that sh1tty inlet manifold.
I've heard that you can get 10-15bhp from changing that alone.
