Surely an exhaust and few mods would see you past 220kw anyhow.
They've got better flowing heads and a few bits and bobs.

Some of the very first ones had pretty trick alloy ones I think, then they started making 'em out of steel, which added a bit more weight, but performance was the same.

Yeah you can get past 220 no probs with an exhaust and stuff, but do the same mods to the 220 and you'll always be at least 20kw, if not more, ahead.

The average punter may not care much about the difference but anyone who's into modding cars would want the 220 - it revs a bit smoother etc...
