Difference = New engine BHP - Old engine BHP
I actualyl dont know, as i've never driven a valver. I'd expect it will be very different, especially in the mid/top range.
I think whether people say it 'wasn't as good as they hope' just depends on what their expectations were.
HOW different do YOU hope/expect/think it will be?

Nova valver
0-60 in 6 to 7 secs
140+ mph top end
They don't feel that fast, that is why people are disappointed. When i drove mine it didn't disappoint, but it didn't feel that quick-----------
until ------------------- I blew the fuck out of a 325i bm, subaru legacy, porsche 911 Carrera2 tipronic, Boxter, 215bhp (british) impreza (jap's sti have 230-270bhp), standard Sunny GTIR, cossie the list goes on (old m3 was my favourite-stayed with him into 3 figures then he fishtailed it on a roundabout at 30 mph and spun up the kerb! My how we laughed!)
Then i was a passenger in my own car.... and i realised it WAS fast as fuck!
You'll love it to bit's!
God i wish i didn't scrap mine....
mine nippy as fcuk and its a 1.8 a valver is suicide :D:D:D:D
