I know the spec says 2.0 is 1.5 secs slower on the 0-60, and that it's the same weight and same fuel consumption.

2.0 is a nicer drive imho as it's noticeably more torquey. Just drop a KR inlet cam in and it'll be at least as fast as a 1.8 + nicer to drive. They respond well to being gas flowed as well.

 

KR cam, gas flowed head, decat etc and you'll be 160-170bhp.

 

Do a search- been discussed a fair bit.
