its book speed is about 152.

clock shows 160+ and i have had a genuine 155 out of a calibra (against a BMW m5, and the limiter kicked in on the BM which is at 155)

LOL.. I know a geezer who has a genuine 450bhp calibra turbo.

Its the demo car for wallace performance in the uk(same idea as regal..)

I saw it up in fife racing against lancer evo 4,5 and 6's......amusing to see a shed whoop thse cars.(and amazing to see one with the 4x4 working!!)

Gearing is higher than the cossie(well, it has a 6th gear) and its cheap as chips. Turbos are really small and shite and they can generally only run 20psi before blowing up (from experience)

Cheap performance car tho.
