Crossed wires here methinks - zasmo is comparing the Polo to a Fiesta ST 190 and a Clio RS, NOT a Cosworth Sierra (used as the base for famous late 80's early 90's touring cars (racers) here in Australia zasmo)
Well matched showing for the drags zasmo Polo GTi, 132kw; Clio RS, 147kw; Fiesta ST 190, 142kw - both those cars are about 100kgs heavier so it should be close (plus the DSG should help in a straight line)
I'd be tempted to think you might beat em both!
In the theoretical world that he was comparing it to a real stock Cosworth Sierra (and not a race car) - you'd find the Polo competitive on a dyno as they only had 200-220hp standard when brand new
