Isn't that one quite old? Red one? Remember seeing it at Doncaster 2001. Polished engine etc.

Was about 225bht then and no-one believed it, guy was talking pish etc..... I laughed at them back then, and heres a micra with nearly double that power... No haters yet though?

This could be me being totally stoned, but why don't the two lines cross at 5252rpm?

bhp = (torque*r.p.m.)/5252


i'll do a calc..

say 200lbft at 5252rpm...

bhp = (200*5252)/5252 = 200

for such a high power figure, the torque is very low.

I would of thought the torque would of been higher with near 400bhp turbo

possibly running to lower compression - or the exhaust is causing the torque to suffer?
