I didn't look at the page, butI believe it's 250 ps which translates to 247 bhp...the extra 7 is to be expected due to their 11.7:1 compression compared to the US 11.0:1

Higher compression made possible by their higher octane fuel?

thats not entirely correct.. cause the Celica & Matrix has an 11.5:1 compression.. and US is limited to 93 octane (in most places)

I guess you could buy a high octane additive as well. That would increase the HP somewhat.

I tried 100 octane in my car and out ran the police with it. No lie! It does make a difference. I got up to 150 MPH quicker than a jail bird picks up a free hooker.
