You asked for highest BHP and torque and now you dont want heavily modded cars
Make your mind up fella, or are you just asking whats easy to be safely achieved in a classic?

OK now are you asking what the highest safe bhp is you can get from one of those? If you are then without changing turbo's I think its around 300. If your asking what you can get by doing anything, the sky is the limit.

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?
Mine has a fair bit of power
