According to wikipedia, now we all know it's not to reliable but the previous owner stated he dynoed mine before all went wrong and it was at 97 KW and wikipedia states 96.

I'd take redbook over wikipedia (but yes I realise they used the wrong picture).

Redbook states that they're 92, I've been told by a lot of mates and even my former mechanic that it's a 97.

I think you'll find the wiki refers to the Euro BGs, which didn't have a cat converter and were a little more powerful because of it
