    I beleive they were rated at 215hp...what do they usually dyno, 185 - 190?

    Also, what does the GTSi weigh? I'd guess around 2400 - 2600 lbs?

    Thanks.

    A 2Vi was rated in USA spec at 205 and in perfect health will pull around 170 at the wheels. Most don't.

    Nevermind....searched and found what looks to be a rough average of 180rwhp and 2800lbs.

    It's worth nothing that most QV's I have seen only pull 180-190 at the wheels, so there is no way a 2Vi is going to do that!

    I wish 2400! Owner’s Manual says ’83 GTS curb weight is 3340 lbs and GTB is 3290.

    Yeah, those are some highly optimistic numbers.

    I think the 170 number is probably closest especially for a 2Vi and weight is somewhere between 3000 and 3200, depending on if it is a US or euro car.
