But it's not a high performance engine is it? It's a mass production 2 litre with a turbo and a new ecu map. It's mildly tuned at best - we're not talking supercar or massively tuned to the limits screamer here are we? (No offence Bella - I'm not trying to belittle your shiny new purchase)

True, but going back to my previous point - it's not an Olympic athlete, it's someone who does a bit of jogging (and likes a kebab or two )
