I have a WBX modified to about Lilley specs  or better sittin on the ground
waitng for me to sell.
Bostom Bob big valve heads, cam, ratio rockers,etc with only 700 miles on it
after total rebuild.
 After 700 miles I swaped it out for a Zetec...Why you ask??? Still a 2.1
boxer ...just never quite fit the bill with me..Yes, it makes what I would
guess a 10 or maybe15 "seat of the pants HP" difference in power..Much
better with the turbo, but..here it comes..Still a WBX.. that I was never
comfortable with and didn't want (or don't know how) to go thru and create a
fuel managment system to go with the turbo.
