thats pritty much the same spec as my frst and it hit 209bhp on a rollin rd! every cars diff but ul b lookin at anythin between 185-205bhp

u wont beat a scoob on take off unless the guy cant drive but ul keep up with most and beat uk2000s if std, mines quicker than a astra vxr but not by much! hope this helps!

oh and all depends on tyres and rd con as even with lsd ul strugle in the wet or if u hav cheepo tyres!
