Dont think a 200bhp diesel is as quick as a 265 bhp petrol!
I had a chipped 120d (163) was kicking out 197 and 410Nm slightly faster than a GTi pretty even stevens with a Honda CTR and E46 330i (221Bhp) may pull a little better in gear but still runs out of puff at 5.5K compared to 7k+ of 130imatt_120d said:Hey guys
Im from south africa, not many people here who run 120D
At moment no one can believe how fast my car is, it faster that 130i and new Golf GTI.
Im a agent for Diesel Tuner, so i have put in a remap box
But what else can i do to my car? What it to be faster, its was a 163Bhp

123d drivers dont appreciate the joy of a long powerband and a whole extra ratio in lower gearing. You beat a girl - well donegt2homas said:130 drivers really dont appreciate the joy of tourque, and the benefits they bring from 30-80.

From experience, the 1er diesel 120/123 has a great engine, but is as dull as dishwater on a spirited drive!

See above!!luke2702 said:Just read the figures, the diesel might have more torque but the petrol is quicker to 60 has more bhp and is lighter. Yours might be good between 30-80 but that would only be keeping up with 130i and after you get to 80 then your power has gone.
You have only raced a girl in a 130i![]()
