The Absinthe Fairy 0 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 HelloIs there anywhere on the site-or does anyone know- the factory stats for bhp/torque/weight etc? Brand new to my car and really interested what the benchmark is, as mine is unmolested.And who has the highest running car claim on the forum!xcx[ Edited ] Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 The only one I know of the top of my head is bhp which is 174 but the factory figures seem quite conservative... highest is easy... that'll be Mina (317bhp at the last rr day!) Link to post Share on other sites
six appeal 53 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Think Mina's actually running more boost now too, so even more power! Link to post Share on other sites
nickbee 1 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 I think the weight is around 1300kg, but it all depends on what's fitted. Aircon and heatedb leather seat won't make it any lighter.I think peak torque is quoted at 170lbft. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Olly_K Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 what reg is yours ? if its an early one the power figure will be about 174 (although they say they get better with more miles on em). Later ones and highlines came with about 185 bhp ? i think thats right !cant really help you with any other figures, maybe a back issue of autocar of summin ?or even better try the web Link to post Share on other sites
