SEiGHT?? I thought that that used the 4200cc Rover engine :? Although, since you can put any engine in you want, the use of Westfields in this is a bit of a dodgy area!!!

Ah yes, they use the 3950cc Rover V8, with a 0-60 of 4.2secs (official website (http://www.westfield-sportscars.co.uk/SEiGHT.htm))

I say, give me the engine data for this car and I will tell you if it matches all the relevent ENGINE data, remembering this has a turbo-charger (does the GTi ???? I don't know :oops: )
I am VERY AWARE of what the topic is, so if the engine data matched perfectly, then I will happily give it to you.
To my knowledge there are 2 different cars that use this engine, although my primary choice is slightly tweaked, but I will except either one, but if you can show me that the Golf GTi has this engine, then as I said, you get the go... believe it or not I am a reasonable person

The Mopar 2.2 Liter Turbo Engine
1991 - The 2.2L Turbo III Is Born
In 1991, the latest news was the introduction of what became known as the 2.2L Turbo III engine. It featured a 2.2L Turbo IV bottom end but with forged pistons and a 16 valve DOHC head designed by Lotus. This was the most powerful 2.2L engine ever put into production by Chrysler, which boasted a whopping 224 hp at 6000 rpm and 217 ft-lbs at 2800 rpm. It was only available in the Dodge Spirit R/T, in an attempt to compete with the Ford Taurus SHO. Since it had the Turbo IV bottom end, it received balance shafts and was fed 11psi of intercooled boost from a Garret TB03 turbocharger. The camshafts actually sit along side the head so that they didn't stick out of the hood, and used real roller rocker arms (instead of cam followers) to actuate the valves. As such, the valves were arranged in a pent-roof design instead of the direct-overhead setup of the 8 valve head, and unlike many other DOHC engines, the Turbo III had valve reliefs on the pistons to keep from destroying them if the timing belt ever failed. The Lotus head did, however have reliability problems with poor castings that resulted in heads cracking and rapid camshaft wear.
