I hope the 20v T has stronger sideshafts etc. Torque steer is a kak evil thing. My bud is the owner of dubsport SA,and has a 2.0 16v Turbo,and its a beeech to handle. Leave alone the mk1 vr6.

had a '91 cti for 14 years, the only major work ever done to the car was replacing rings in 2005. thats good service for a 14 year old car in my book.
