Hi all,
I did think that a difference of 20bhp wouldn't make that much difference to performance but evidently from the 0-60 times it can make a difference of seconds, whether you can feel the difference when driving the cars is another thing.

I have the 170 bhp passat. I've driven loads of 140s - the 30bhp makes a massive amount of difference to the feel and overall performance of the cars.

Its not the 30BHP head line figure that makes the difference, its the torque curve difference you feel.
