yea, if its a 16v, then it will be an xe. in which case, your 1.4 will be an x14xe.

however, im not sure they made 16v SRi's... :meh:

i the engine like this :

or like this :

in general shape...as in the cam cover. the top one is a 16v engine, and the bottom is an 8v.

the 8v engine code was the c14se
