What is my bhp?

As I delve ever deeper into the area of goodies and hiding reciepts, I've noticed that my 2.5 20v 1995 has different listed power outputs I've checked my log book and they no longer show bhp so how would I find out the stated bhp of me engine. Sounds simple but as it's my 1st volvo I don't know where to look. Cheers

i had a p reg v7o cd and that was a 2.5l 20v auto, when i chopped it in i was told that it was the 144bhp version,you could always stick it on a rolling road to see what its pushing out if your that curios.

big v... you know how women always buy new stuff then to stop you finding out when you notice it's new they say " no darling I've had that for ages" Well now I know my bhp I can have a starting point for bhp changes and when she says" this is faster than when I drove it last I can say, no sweetheart it was always that way. Clan Thanks for the BS..I checked it and it confirms the 170bhp engine...ta muchly
