I know the standard 440 1.7 turbo puts out 120BHP but when I bought mine it was already fitted with a manual boost control, performance exhaust, K&N cone airfilter and a forge dump valve, I have owned a couple of cars around the 120BHP mark and the 440 is way quicker than the others, namely a 1.8 8v clio and a 2.0 8v calibra.

Just looking for a rough figure I can expect to be packing under the bonnet, Iv'e conservatively estimated about 135-140 but can anyone, give me any hints. Not sure what PSI the engine is running though.

Thanks Lee
