Says the discs are the same as the 21 Turbo, which is incorrect.

It's most certainly a 16v.

16v bumper

16v headlights

French ones (or at least the early ones) don't have the bonnet vent, that's all.

forged crank? Not that I recall.

True about the overlap, easy instant power with stock cams if you alter the timing.

Not all of them have the heat exhcanger.

Calipers and carrier are the same as the 21T but the discs are not as the 21 is a 5 stud.
