i went from a rover 416, only 9bhp less than the 120 as standard, but it was on a throttle body and induction kit so wouldnt even be that difference. the difference between that and a 180 was amazing. not just acceleration in a straight line but over taking as well, and the way my 180 goes from 70 to 90 in 5th on the motorway is truely superb
