im talking to those people with aftermarket inlet manifolds.
what bigger engined cars can you keep up with?
lets say you have from 110 - 140bhp from your 1.4/1.6
how do you do against...
gsi's
v6's
vts
etc

Pull away from phase one VTS's quite easy (seem slower than the phase two's) can slowly catch a phase two after 50mph+
Keep with 106GTi's, pull away from 206 GTi's (136bhp) 2.0 GTi escorts, Suzuki Baleno's 1.6 16v's, Swift GTi's, Corsa C 1.8 SRi, Astra 2.0 16v Sport. Cant think of anymore.

I can keep up with most modern day sports cars, went past a DB9 the other day.
Yes, this may have happened in traffic but the question was not specific enough

With the 1.2 8v in, probably can keep up with people on push bikes or on a good day maybe a moped?
