About 185 bhp plus the nitrous kit to go on! As its a T2 which means very low lag! It is really more about mid range go, so my little fiesta has a good overtake capabilities!

Haha yer hoping for around 200 when its back together. Forgot to mention its also got an airtec front mount ic. Toying with the idea of putting a 5th injector setup on it as I've had an erl injector controller for ages just never used it. I know everyone will say go efi but I'd rather tune it old skool as its an old skool hot hatch and I don't want it to drive like one, prefer raw aggressive unrefined power as its more exciting lol
