I hasten to add that I'd like to be proven wrong, but to me those performance figures just don't seem to add up for the engine spec - please could you clarify how these readings were taken? The speed units are presumably not km/h as 13.7secs 0-60mph / 100km/h is factory spec twin carb performance, and to put it in perspective, a 5.8secs 0-60mph time requires about 300bhp for a current BMW 3 series, & is also quicker than the first 911 Turbo....
