That was meant to say that I don't know what the polo weighs but I doubt that at 220 bhp it has a bigger bhp per tonne that a 380 bhp golf
BMW 335d msport touring lci. Auto, estate and diesel! Oh no

ITG certainly know how to make a good filter and intake and great figures, if their stuff is good enough for Mr Vettel and Redbull and Mr Neal at Honda Racing its good enough for me  :happy2:

1189kg for the APR Polo = 185bhp/ton
1476kg for the APR Golf = 257bhp/ton

BUT, the Polo was able to maintain more speed through corners than the Golf and managed to beat the Polo by 1 second flat.

Mine now weighs in at 1143kg with just under half a tank of fuel and has at least 236bhp, so 206.5bhp/ton.  :happy2:
Golf R gone.

Is the polo actually wider than the golf?  Looks like it in the pictures
