    A 16v will perform just like your 8v. It'll just have more power..

    Dont go the soft option. Slap in a VR6 and then twin turbo it. Chuck bolt on a superchager for low down grunt, and some nos for good measure and you will have.....well, something unregisterable for a start.

    Haha, I like your style. But the difference between tuning the 8v and putting in a different engine is that the 8V is already in there!
