[edit] 2.0 vs 2.8

I'm not sure the timeline for the 2.0 and 2.8 versions is entirely correct. My understanding (after reading an article in Evo magazine) is that the 2.8, 285 bhp version was what we got in the UK. In the rest of the Europe they got a 2.0, 305 bhp version due to the tax regime in place in certain countries at the time, which effectively limited many cars to just under 2 litres (cf Ferrari 208). Then, of course, there was the "Cup" version that had 330 bhp from the 2.0 engine with a pair of IHI roller-bearing turbos. Carl w 23:01, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

oh and the 2.0 does not have the highest output of any road legal car, for one, numerous cars built by Radical offer far higher bhp/ccSennen goroshi 04:46, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
