its just different really...i wouldnt put it on the same level as any of them
I guess if I had to Id put it above the y7 motor because its more hp, but it gets much better mpg than any of the others, however its absolute crap when it comes to getting it to go really fast (which is why after the basic bolt ons, people swap on an ex head)
