My m8 had an (Healthy) XE Corsa 150/160bhp and against a CTR from a rolling start there wasnt much in it upto tripple figures before the CTR started pulling away.
I dont believe your 130bhp eco wreck engine would fair up againt a 200bhp VTEC unless it was driven by a numpty or they werent actually trying to race you.

A 106 GTi will over take a CTR at 160mph easy.

The LET doesn't have the torque of the CTR I'm afraid.

really? i would have thought it would be very close and given it to the corsa due to the same Power, more torque and 200kg weight difference over the CTR.
C20LET
Maximum power output: 204bhp @5600RPM
Maximum torque: 206.5lb/ft @2400RPM
The Civic would be good for around 150mph but so would the Corsa would it not?

yeah, once you actually take the v-tec into the calculation, a let corsa will not, never keep up with a std ctr
