WTA..if 1.5 engine without turbo, is it the same technology as 1.8?
1.8 is R series

Combustion chamber

Valvetrain SOHC
Fuel system PGM-FI

while the 1.5 Turbo is L series
L15B7

1.8 vs 1.5T?
SOHC vs DOHC
non-turbo vs turbo
PGM-FI vs Direct Injection
The physical size of the 1.5T is identical to the Jazz/City L15A7, except material used and technologies are diff
which is why the NVH characters of both L engine is sounds similar (according to my friend)
If the turbo gone....it will be identical to L15B1
the Direct Injection version, used in other place except malaysia....
