The engine is a SEB 2 (chip) which is quoted at 175 bhp, with a THS FMIC, and Magnex exhaust (sounds really good)
Engine runs standard turbo, which still pulls hard. This car keeps up with the likes of Civic Type R's etc
this true??

not if looked after..
i didnt know abut the sills when i sold it, i took it for its MOT and it passed everything apart from a brake pipe and 2 2p sized holes that needed welding up. and id not really driven it after.
ppl always say fiat bah! but a car is only as good as its owner in my eyes.

I agree - my GT had covered 68k with no problems at all in my 3 years ownership but then I looked after it and serviced it. The new owner smashed it after 2 weeks, really wish I hadn't sold it.
