T5-R vs. Turbo 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Don Struke on  Tue Aug 20 07:14 CST 2002 [RELATED]

FOR THE RECORD the T-5R produces not 240 hp but 237 and can do so for 30 sec, not 10. My source is my owner's manual, page 93. Of course by the time you get to the 30th second your 237 hp will have your car going so fast it will feel just like 240 (grin). BUT I recall reading the 237 is not available in top gear (in auto trans, at least) which kind of throws a Swedish meatball in the mix. Bummer. But at least the a/c is disabled at WOT.
