How much torque and bhp does the Z20LET produce then?

Not surprisingly, one wasted me when I was in the V6 (170bhp) a few nights ago. I did sort of keep up with him till about (an indicated) 120mph before we both ran out of road on a "private road"...!

I always believed the GSi was a different state of tune, but its only software.

officail figures are all different straight from vauxhall. A lot was down to insurance and company car tax purposes, it was also down to making the GSi seem better than the limited run of 500 Sri Turbos (which were built to cover the launch of the focus ST170). Coupe Turbo (the first Z20LET ) was listed as 190PS (189BHP) however later versions where meant to be higher, again to sell units without any changes. Then came the Sri Turbo 192PS (190BHP) then the GSi 200PS (197BHP).

When it comes down to it all the engines are the same and all produce varying differnt results on the RR in standard guise, ranging from 182BHP to as high as 208BHP.

All of which is very anal and equates to several cars with all the same engines and same power give or take
