But the MI-16 engine is a lot more tuneable. That's why there are a lot more heavily modified MI-16 engines than there are 16V's. |

True Chris, but it's something to bear in mind especially if the guy's prepared/wanting to spend a bit of cash on the engine, you want to start out with something that's gonna respond well to the modifications! |
