Fiat dealer didn't believe steering rack had failed even though there was a recall on the earlier cars. Told owner to have MOT. MOT failed on a serious. Car taken home on trailer.

you would need to uprate the turbo tbh stockers punto was running 180bhp but that was on a hybrid.
You could run 300bhp with everything standard if you wanted but it wouldnt last very long lol

More than likely was but turbo'd cars can have so many different variables its hard to guess bhp figures... 170bhp is an average of what people get quite easily from similair mods..
I'm calm as a daisy... lol

tell rob not to be so stupid as to buy a GT. I think it looks ace but really they are unreliable as fuck and that GT was run on seriously dodgy rollers, I was there lol

vibrio says:
it is possible to make 170hp with the seb2 but I would take it as a pinch of salt. point is you can make loads of torque peak but the boost drops rapidly towards redline

its the bit in bold that lead me to think that these figures are bullshit of the highest level. they might have made those figures on the rollers but Well Lane has a very bad reputation for hyping up the figures so that people leave with a smile on their face.
