However, I said to myself I would not spend as much money as I have done in the past on previous cars making it pristine. That&#8217;s not what I was after &#8211; just cheap and cheerful fun with an element of reliability. The car is comfortable, practical and economical and yet has the ability to put a smile on my face. After all that it has had&nbsp;a number of&nbsp;visual formats with various decals and wheels but all done on a shoe string. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So after a tweak here and there the Rolling Road results from WGT indicates that it is&nbsp;running 138.5bhp and approx 240Ibft torque on the standard turbo and clutch (It is acknowledged that any further modifications would need both upgrading). I am convinced I can break the 140bhp mark but to be honest the drivability would be sacrificed and that simply is not good for me or the car.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current State:Current Power level: 138.4&nbsp; @ 3365 rpmCurrent Torque Level:&nbsp;240 @ 2278 rpm (Approx.)
