duno - but it took its time to get there 
be interesting to see how it goes now with the full exhaust & decat... easily get it to 120 on the clocks no no trouble!
roll on the 8th aswell to see how much power I have... guesstimating about 110-112bhp at most, but still better than 106bhp!!
Pipercross induction kit (will be cleaned this/next weekend!)
Lexmaull Grp-N full cat-back exhaust (straight-thru, no centre section)
Piper Decat with Silencer
Bosch Super-4 Plugs (new 1.5k ago, but likely to do jack :lol

actually 132mph i forgot to add on the odd few mph as no one will know, and i really believe i did that speed.
why buy a faster car when 1.0 12v are doing 115mph?

got a mate who thinks his 1.0 metro with 4 gears did 120mph with 4 mates in the car.
Yet in my 1.6escort along the same road i can only just touch 117mph(5th) with just me in the car.
