other bhp per ton comparisons
Ford Focus ST170 170bhp- (143 per ton)
Golf GTI 200 - (150 per ton)
Celica GT4 195- (157 per ton)
Honda Accord Type-R 210bhp - (163 per ton)
Ford Sierra RS Cosworth 205bhp - (169 per ton)
Renaultsport Clio V6 255bhp- (175per ton)

any idea on the subaru wrx ?

all interesting stuff this as it explains why my zs goes pretty well when its bhp per ton figures are not far off a 260bhp subaru.
