I haven’t dynoed for a while but I would estimate 175+ HP and 300+ ft/lbs. The car is fast, handles great and my last 2 tanks of fuel got me 51+ MPG. It drops way down to 46-47 MPG if you go fast. It’s good for 120 MPH in 4th gear. Smoke is minimal IMO. I’ve taken this car to about the limit of what I wanted to accomplish and now I’m going to try again with an A5. That and I need a bigger car, as my family gets bigger. I have tried hard to make sure everything has been well maintained and clean. I have a ton of receipts that anyone would be welcome to wade through. Anyone who has driven the car (there have been a few) could chime in on how it runs and handles. There are probably more things that have been done that I can’t remember. If you’re interested please PM me or call my cell: (207) 831-6868. Oh yeah, I’m asking $12K OBO. Thanks for looking

I'll go out and grab some this afternoon and post them. Tomorrow I have a friend who will take some for me to post, he's much better than I am at taking pics.
