Now that's the performance that the Si needs to be kicking some butts considering the segment just got alot more competitive in term of performance coming from SE-R SpecV, SVT Focus, MSP, Neon SR-T4, and I also read that the new Lancer OZ will get a 170-175HP engine to match the look. I'm not sure if this is true as well but I heard Toyota is considering putting the GT-S engine into the Corolla. All this mean that every car in this segment has at least 170HP. The Si is the only one w/ 160HP.
Mugen Si has 240HP!!!
