Close enough though.....

The official Renault figure is 200nm (147lb/ft) @ 5400rpm but all cars can differ and not all are exactly the same...

On the rollers mine made more torque and peaked at lower rpm

Best torque figure overall was mailto:m@thew s">m@thew s car, with 155lb/ft @ 5500rpm

The 2 standard cars with 144bhp @ wheels made, 143lb/ft @ 5500rpm and 147lbft @ 5500rpm



Mine was a LOT stronger in the mid range though, miles more grunt than any other car tested on the day!

This is a graph showing my car compared to the 2 standard ones >>>

Just needs less restriction at the higher revs and it will be superb!
