550bhp? I'm a bit of a Nova-head, so I'd be interested to know who that is?

Don't feel bad.
15y ago I was knackered after a hard nights work and on my way home, was at P2 on the grid at the lights half asleep against some mini cabbiie in a FWD nissan. I was in my RWD chipped 320bhp saphire cosworth. Got tottally spanked as I was hitting the rev limiter and moving forward at tortoise pace through poor clutch control. No excuses but I was tired.
Lost no sleep over it.....sh*t happens!

2.0 turbos from the calibra are quality. My mates got an mk3 astra witht the engine and its running 350bhp and has about 70bhp shot worth of nos on top of that. Not the best every day car tho!
