        Cosworths can be made to be VERY fast in a straight line. I have read of a few that can crack 200 mph. Wasn't there one on topgear years ago or was it fifth gear. Lethal bad handling things though...

              mark shead built it

              if you blew a cossie away that ran out of steam at 140 - 150 i bet it was pretty standard, the 355bhp @ similar torque cossie i drove pretty much killed anything it came in contact with.

              either way, id have the Audi

                  Sounds about right does that. The Rally car's 1170kg with the 20vT in it.

                    propper power cosworths are few and far between, 350bhp stage 3 setups normaly give 300-320 in my experience,

                    my quickest saff was well over 500bhp and still my favouritest car yet

                    must get some propper power out of the A4 soon, or just tax and drive it this year
