i might be wrong, but isn't US spec 16v's the CIS-E for 1.8 and CIS-E motronic 
for 2.0
euro 1.8 16v's i believe had plain CIS
euro Corrado's were avaible with a 2.0 16v rated at 136hp running the same 
CIS-E Motronic that we have
MK3 GTI's were avilible with a 2.0 16v in europe, rated at 150 that are full 
motronic system, i believe the US mk3 8v/vr6 use the same system

some local guys here have used digi to power 16v, none have let me know if the 
power is the same

please correct if i made any mistakes
