You can make it a fairly good engine, but it isn't necessarily good out of the box.
Just because peugeot stopped making accessory parts for XU does not mean you cannot get them elsewhere, and besides XU's were used until 2001 so you can still get plenty of parts.

Why would you think they are??
Its the exact same engine 
The earlier ones were 137 tho |
i never said i did think they were :/ |
Then why ask the question then?
Should have just said, "I've been offered a 8v 2.0litre Turbo petrol engine from a Peugeot, anyone know which car it's from and if its good?"
