I have a R reg 1.6 Sport...only engine mod is a K&N and its on 15's.
A lad i kno has jus bought a 1.6 8v J reg XR2i (induction kit only)...he was sayin its fast etc..
We raced on an empty straight road twice...and i have to say both cars were dead even.
I know they have 110bhp and my corsa has 106bhp....so does this sound about right?

He pulled out to overrtake but i edged away....it was upto about half way through 4th gear...then we backed off.
My K&N is old and dirty aswell...probs make my car about 100bhp!

The XR2i should be no problem at all for a Corsa Sport

You will probably loose power with the induction kit whether it be dirty or not as its gonna suck in more hot air than standard
