can somebody please tell me if i have been ripped of here -
is this the 200 or the 270 engine?

as when looking at air filters this engine bay looks nothing like the 270 R models ive seen but more like the GT 200.

hopefully its just me getting confused - but if not i need to return it asap.

all docs and paperwork are for the RCZr 270

cheers for any help

The rocker cover clearly states 200 on mine & looks different to yours.

Looks like my R. It even has the same pink dust which I believe is from the turbo insulation. Time for an engine bay clean :)

Further to all your help so far guys should anything be plugged in here if not what is the gap for?

And yes I know the engine bay is disgusting, it was like that when I picked it up a week ago andI haven't had chance to detail it yet.

Can't help with your question....
But there appears to be rusted bolts and so on. Is that a normal thing in the UK? Is it from the salt on the roads?
Thankfully salty roads are not a thing where I live.

Jeez, what's the rest of the car like? That engine bay is pretty bad.

Given I haven't owned an RCZ for nearly 3 years I may be wrong, but, engine mount. Pretty sure that's what they look like.

The giveaway is the Position of the Oxygen sensor on the different variants plus the heatshield on the 200GT won't bolt on to the "R" Turbo housing & you will not have the Ballistic acceleration from a stop start
