The answer I gave was in relation to a 1.8 VVC (MG TF 160) not my ZT 1.8 Turbo.

I know its only 8bhp, but with the smoother rev range, increased torque etc, you do feel its a lot more that 8bhp. I suppose it depends what people want, massive bhp is not for everyone. I personally like the increase torque from 2000rpm.
