    Teehee!
    Admittedly, the R has about 20 more bhp per ton than a standard T5 BUT with a remap and the lower weight of a standard V70/S60 the T5 has 1 more bhp but only 2 boots to lose power through (and a smaller chance of leaving bits of metal, showered across the start line pmsl).

    So's Martin, I should think the C70 has better power to weight ratio, and no DIMM or ETM issues.

    Yours isn't 1530kg though, so put the right weight in your calculator, and try again.
