Still a lot of KW's, if you have 170kw/380NM at JHB, then you will have +- 179kw/400NM at coast!!!!!

Good idea Werner. U can definitely feel the extra power & responsiveness at sea level..

Might be a pointless mission, due to different dyno calibrations...
At the coast, The Clio's will give you a hard time bud

Also depends on whether the software on the car is self adaptive and changes accordingly. My Coupe was like this and after a day when I got to Durban, felt a big difference in the power.
The Evo is tuned currently for the highveld so I actually feel the car runs better in JHB than at the coast.
