Im not sure how much power there is, but it should be around 350 hp. Quite fun at winter, and when the light shifts to green i can floor it and go instead of setting the tyres on fire

Thats half the beauty of liking cars, we dont like the same
Ignition is standard exept for megasquirt managing it. Got the bits to ged rid if the distributor but havnt come to do it yet. Going to pull the intake and mont new injectors soon, get some moore boost, and at the same time make a vacumsentral and get wasted spark up and running.
