Which is the best engine variant and what does it mean?

How to go faster, stop quicker, and turn harder. Chips, exhaust, larger turbos, bigger/slotted/drilled rotors, high performance brake pads, manual boost controllers, performance shocks/struts/springs, airbox mods and more! Also discussion on HID and Xenon lights, aftermarket foglights and other exterior lighting.

Depends on what you're doing with them I suppose. Are you looking to race, daily driver, travel, haul, longevity, ease of maintenance, availability of parts, etc? I spent about 5 minutes looking them up and found lots of info. Just google each engine code.
