all i can put it down to (from snippits of info i have seen on here) is that mine being an 88 facelift is mapped to run a kat which it hasnt got... so is lean in the mid range and fuel's properly again above 4K

dunno if thats right or wrong though

It's all to do with the ports being too big. They flow too much air for a 2.0 litre, and that makes the gas speed too slow at low revs.
That's why the 'head deosn't really need porting when it's used on a 2.7 bottom end, they're plenty big enough to cope with the extra 700cc's.

BTW, nice car Mic. 4-door too!

Enjoy it.
