140bhp at the wheels yeah alright mate fly most likely, if it's that high.

doesn't sound 'euro' at all to me tbh, would need to be lowered much more and not have generic wheels on.

put some pics up though to prove me wrong

thanks for the replys, the engine has had thousands spent on it everything that can be uprated is uprated and lightened, its producing 168 at the flywheel it wheelspins in 3rd and drifts round corners, and as for the wheels, if you look closer it does say im getting 7.5" wide steelies, with stretched tyres from from wide-wheelsuk and ive already lowered the back to -60mm i live in the middle of nowhere and the roads are crap round here lowering it any more will just knacker the car up, will get pics up asap, my digi cams not working at the min, brad

My rears are 9" wide, fronts 8" wide, but remember my arches are wider so hence i can fit 9's at the back. The 8's have around a 3" dish
