They didnt do a 1.5TD did they? Just a 1.7TD Cav engine.

with the white ring mod aswell as a few select choice mods and upped boost i wouldnt be at all surprised to see a 1.5td nova do a gsi

my old 1.5td nova van from many moons ago was a rotten shed but would still keep pace with my best mates sri and in some circumstances start to pull away and that was near standard

Agreed. The TD Nova are **** hot and can really really shift. I've seen these in action and they'd shame quite a few other motors. As for the 130mph I'd safely say hes is talking ****e. I dont think the Gear box would go that high, that said if some one checked the top speed of a Cavalier TD, maybe with one of those gear boxes it might see a bit over 110mph. Pure speculation though. Moral of the story, go and race a TD Nova and you'll get a nasty shock.
