whats the loom on an 16xe like? are they similar to a sri and c16se loom? also are there any difference with corsa sport and gsi engines and vectra 1.6 16v engines? cheers!:thumb:

The engine loom is seperate to the car loom.
Early GSI's had c16xe(no egr sensor etc), later had x16xe(Map sensor, egr valve, immobiliser system)

Vectra had x16xel engine(different head/cams to the other 1.6 16vs, and only 100bhp)

lovely stuff! so the vectra engine is naff then??

[Adam]

Its not really naff.
Its an alrate engine, especially if you are going mod it.

TBs etc would see about the same power as they would on a c/x/16xe.

Also remember that x16xe(corsa sport/late gsi) and x16xel(vectra) will have the immobiliser system built into the ecu, so you would also need extra bit of loom and the cars ign key.
