with what you have done, its probably about 100bhp, whilst mine is about 108-110. I can do 0-60 in 8.7 seconds. Proved using Garmin GPS. You would not get a look in, could keep up with my dads Focus ST170 up to 80mph, before it started to pull away.

im 20. I am going over as an international student, so i guess i wont be driving anything fancy until i leave university. But i wouldnt mind a Holden barina GSi in silver for when i get out there. Then maybe progress onto a jap power machine, since they are very popular out there.

Check the spark plugs are not damaged, if you have put too much oil in the car, the sparks can get messed up. HT leads should be changed with sparks IMO

PMSL

it DOES slow it down because the extra metal on a 17" alloys does weight a bit more, this creates more of a drag on your driveshafts, meaning they need more power to make them turn, meaning that your car is in fact slower

cars like 1.2 corsa's are slow enough anyway, dont let it bother you

BTW - 1.4 16v sport would win, wot a daft question
