160, bit of torque then.....
My car is approx 240bhp and 400lb/ft torque now. I've never had it on the rolling road, as I dont really care about figures as such. But cars with similar mods make similar power so wont be far off. I do know that it'll light up the tyres in 4th at 2300rpm in the dry, if you really wanted too.
I'll be honest though, the engine and brakes flatter the rest of the car in my case. If only Seat had put a bit of work into the suspension, it could be so much better.
