stick a corsa vxr turbo on it with a decomp plate, and map it yourself lol
it needs to be a reliable daily lol
I may be thinking of the exhaust noise thing, which is a free pass for anything not fitted as standard iirc. As you say tested as whatever is older though, use an SEH block with an XE head in that case if there's no early XE's available, engine number will say it's pre cat.
lol, i have trouble finding IBTB's lol
If you've already got a decent 1.6 you want to keep then cams and headwork, might run on an AFPR, might need mapping (if the vauxhall unit can be) but with a good head you'll see decent power out of it.
Nick, you looked into going x20xe with TB's? as for TB's you should be able to find some, just NOT on ebay mate.
Other wise why not go for a late x25/x30 v6?
i'm surprised you haven't been up to the bmw breakers again.....
can you do the inlet powerbox thing on one this new??
a grand would get a powerbox, some reground cams, and a decent chimney, and it would be fairly quick.
anyone want to buy a corsa, this thing is ****ing stupid,
to do the tensioner, you have to remove the engine mount, to remove the engine mount you have to remove the rad and aircon rad, but you cant remove the rad, due to the pas bottle which you cant undo, as everything is on the wrong side,
its about to get the ****ING HAMMER
you not scrapped this yet lol
