Very tidy car. Is it sold yet or in the process of selling? Either way it's sad to see it go!
Only just found this thread and for what it is, it's a mint car. Also; you were pulling more brake and about the same torque as my 1.4, so that's just put me to shame.

Thought id get out my shovel and dig up this old thread. The quoted 80 odd BHP from this engine was from AMD's rollers, which are renowned for over reading. Those are the same rollers that say a stage 1 1.8T Ibiza FR has 226bhp, and the same rollers thought a stage 2 Cupra TSi was running 240 :rofl:

The saying is 'If you want an extra 20% more BHP then go on AMD's rollers'

Not trolling, just pointing out a strong positive correlation between AMD rollers and unusually highly BHP readings. I'm not doubting this car was a quick 1.2, and i bet it was probably a little quicker than standard.

Would love to know who's got rather "neutral" or accurate rollers, according to some in another thread Awesome GTIs are a bit optimistic too.

RS Tuning? They're local-ish, wonder if they're rollers are neutral?
