You just don't get the same grunt with a 4 cylinder engine though! Although a decent exhaust system would help that a little!

in fact, your engine should be 135hp and the 10v 5 cyl engines are 134hp.
Thanks, at least the collected info confirms that all of you are in the same line of thought, I have learned more in 3 days than in the same number of years with my GTX'es. The bigger engine=more grunt makes sense.
Much appreciated!
