It is little but pretty powerful

The Johnson Motor is pretty powerful for its small size.

In fact, it is about 40W of peak power -- that is more than the seat motors or the window motors.

Now, its power comes from its speed not its torque, but even so, it is a pretty good motor for the right application. If you give it a 100:1 gear ratio or so you'd be surprised how torquey you'd find the output.
