xud -better in petrol or diesel ???

[Niall]

Is the '6 ex mani seriously lighter than the XSi one?! Crazy-ass shit! Tbf the inlet manis aren't all that different, you're right. Meh, i count stage 1'd XUDs as standard since you don't have to spend any money to tune them; I maintain your 1.8 wouldn't beat them, but guess we'll never know. Dammit Niall, trolling you isn't much fun any more. :p

Substantially! The 6 mani looks alot bigger but its only 1mm steel. The xsi one is cast and must be at least 5mm thick. Its seriously weighty for something small.
Correct a stage 1 doesnt really cost anything but i can still speak from experience that my 1.8 was alot quicker than a standard DT. But like i said in my pro and con post, its easy and cheap to tune a DT. Any proper tuning on any of the perv 306s generally requires a remap which also requires a new ECU so your already looking at 1k+ just to get the most out of that ever so slightly larier cam you have just fitted.

Swings and roundabouts really.
And f*ck you and your trolling. Oh and we may find out this time next year about if my 1.8 will have a stage 1 dt but it might not be strictly standard.....
