Why does a car need to do more than 70? I admit the faster the better, but no car really needs to go over 70 does it.

yeh but how quickly does the gsi get to 80 compared with the 1.2

also you'd beat a 1.0 12v to 60 then he stage a comeback

mav i also got killed by a bird in a sechento when i had my 1.2 engine

It's not really how fast your car can go, its how quickly it get's their, ie acceleration. No point having a 90mph car if it takes 3 hrs to get to 90!

dont waste your money on a cat back, just get a back box, its not worth spending money on performance on an engine that small, its not worth putting your insurance up,

I kept up with a 1.2 8v Clio tonight.
