Well, that’s sorted for the 240. Stage 1 weight reduction drops the weight from 1324kg to 1191kg. Sweet!
All engine parts max at 354 BHP. Sweet again! Stroke & bore raise engine capacity to 2086cc.

Edit: Updated OP with Volvo 240 specs. 320-340BHP/1100kg
The wagon is nice. Has a 50:50 weight distribution at Stage 2 weight reduction(1098kg) with 2 kg of ballast to bring weight up to 1100kg. 96% power is 339 BHP(606.93 PP). 97% power at 343 BHP(608.03 PP).

The R31 and RS 500 can go toe to toe blow for blow.

Adjusted the E30 SE to 1990/1991 BHP, due the rise in performance of the RS 500 and new R31 entering Group A.

The 240 works best in the early days of Group A. Setting the R31 to the debut four-cylinder non-GTS-R spec 340 BHP/1070kg, RS 500 to 360-370 BHP/1035kg, E30 non-evo 300 BHP, Supra 370 BHP, 190 E 260-310 BHP.
It just can not hang with the later spec cars.

Class C cars Same specs. Levin has a 557.18 PP versus Sprinter 557.16 PP due to the more slippery nose.
