But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

They're for 8v digifants though.

As far as i'm aware the only thing you can/could get for the 16v is the kstar unit which is effectively a remappable ignition ecu, but i don't think you see much power increase from it.
