Engine designation
« on: 04 February 2011, 09:02:09 »
X20SE, X20XEV, Y22XE, Z22XE, X25XE, Y26SE, X30XE, Y32SE, X20DTH, Y22DTH, U25TD, X25TD

I get the numbers being engine size, but what do the letters indicate?

No rocks, as long as you don't say "Jehovah" ;)

Thanks for that, It's not overly important, as mine's a 3L so there's only 1 option, but I wondered what they meant in the real world... please bear in mind I'm an idiot who knows nothing about compression  :-[
