More valves will always be better.  

then how cum a mk2 8v will piss on a 20v gti arse all day long? ;)

despite the mk2 being a bit heavy, the mk4 is the weight of a cross channel ferry.

indeed your car probably is quicker than a 16v.

however, this isn't a debate about moded cars vs standard cars.

Its you and the other 8v owners that cannot except that the 16v is more powerful engine, at whatever revs.

Another thing to note about the 1.8 20v is it was detuned to 125bhp to fit in with 150bhp 1.8 20v Turbo engine.
The 1.8 20v will run at a more natural 150bhp with a few mods.

Yeah - thinking about sorting this out on mine.  What'll I need to do? I figure: air filter, exhaust and remap?
