I'm a bit miffed how the std management is allowing it to rev to 7200rpm
I would imagine 175 is flywheel power, which is still V impressive.

Awesome result Chris, i know why you weren't at the meet now!
I really dont see those results at the wheels tbh.
Is that XE'd corsa std? 153bhp at the fly is about right for a xe. 170ish aint.
Is your ecu superchipped? As CG said, that RR printout, max power is way above the e16se's rev limit.
What Psi is the turbo running, i was having a discussion with a mate, and he recons 200bhp(at the fly) is easily gettable with proper management....
Not sure how the fuel pressure mod compares to that.
So i reckon your 175bhp is at the fly, still, fookin awesome result. :thumb::cool:
Abit worrying about having to rebuild the engine tho...
Makes me want to get some parts together and build a turbo 1.6 myself. As usual for me, a proper pikey build lol, but spending out on decent management to look after it all.
s14a-157 should be easily achievable, you can get 150bhp from a 1.6 8v NA.
Im not joking lads its 175bhp at the wheels phone Hi-Tech and ask Mick 01384561777. I would only have to take you out in it and you would belive me its f**king rapid and handles brillant. Im running 10psi because i dont think the managment can take anymore. I am getting omex soon its just that things have come up so have'nt enough money at the moment. its running a standard ecu!!! Im not happy about the re-build aswell but we still dont really know the cause, so were carrying on are testing of different mods but things seam to be going well, there arent many people who have messed with this conversion loads. Still looking for en-larged thottle body for it. im on the rollers again on the 14th at hi-tech for a power run with migweb and hopefully TV will be there so come on over lads.
The corsa is'nt standard i dont know alot about whats been done but it came out of my mates astra and it was running 180bhp(flywheel) then so his lost a bit of power in the swop.
Not trying to have a dig or anything, but how has it revved to over the e16se's rev limit?
Also, im interested in how you lowered the comp ratio? Did you change pistons or use a spacer plate or something.
May be doing something similar myself v. soon.
I dont know how it revs that high but it does, ive got the courtney spacer plate. you lads are never going to belive me are you!!!!! i have no need to lie to you lot im not some kid who lives in a dream world.
Im not saying your lying, i can see the RR print out, 175@7266rpm :)
Its just hard to explain how a engine management system limited to 6600rpm or there abouts, is still running at 7266rpm. Even yourself can't explain it. Unless its a chipped ecu, with a raised limit.
Where did you get the spacer? From courtney themselves?
I might get my ass down to hi-tech on the 14th, will be very interested in seeing it run :)
I brought the turbo kit with bits missing out of the bargain pages about two years ago. Tbh i didnt even know that was the rev limit of a 1.6i so ive learnt somethink there. were going to try bigger injectors before the 14th and see what happens if it blows up we know not to do that again LOL!!! come down before the 14th if you want and i'll take you out cause im only at J10 M6
my old black E16 engined GSi used to rev over 6600rpm easily :thumb:Quote:

Ive not owned a e16 engine, but they must have a limiter.
Green-Might pop down sometime, dont blow it up before i get there tho,Lol.
If the RR operator checked the fueling, and said it was ok i'd leave the injectors, fit 20xe injectors when the Omex goes on.
