210bhp should give you the wow feeling when the turbo comes on song, easy wheel spin in 1st gear and should grapple for traction on 2nd in the dry.  It could be remapped but running a fault which put it on part with a Corsa C or a na 20v.

Rolling road will tell you the BHP, at least then you'll  know how much power you have under the bonnet
