Ryan,
I have a LOT of torque though
anti-lag plus 2.3 bar on a T4 in the midrange with 2.2 litres =
and the clutch takes it

Ranj,
That information is classified
or it could be that Bernie hasn't had it back from being peened and polished - it's one of those two anyway
.
Rod,
Now you're being silly, he said 500bhp NOT 500lbft
