iv got a x16xe corsa sport , janspeed 4-2-1 sportex system ,de cat , mantzel powerbox ,stripped out in the back
i passed him prety easily and he couldnt keep up . i had to let off at one point to allow him to catch up , i know the boy and he wasnt hanging about he was going for it . quite impressed at my x16xe that means im pushing out atleast 125bhp

id imagine it would be quite close with your mods and a decent example 106gti, maybe you caught him in the wrong gear, or maybe his is fooked

Do you know the car? If so, was it standard?
My gti was 940kg on the scales with full interior and a 2.5" BTB system which weighs a fair bit.

Sounds about right I guess, his is standard and full interior? Both about the same power and weight. Wouldn't of said that you would have blew him away though, unless his was a dog.

This site makes me laugh at times, just because a car is faster doesn't mean it will win a race.

Probably a dog of an engine then. A 106 with a good engine and breathing mods would have resulted in a different outcome.
Yours will probably be about 125 at a guess?
