i'd sy more 16's/low 17's spesh with the install and the 1.6 aint the most tourqiest of engines. Lee mitchell has a corsa GSi running 140 BHP and that only does it in the high 16's/low 17's

WEll, my install made my 9.55 0-60 go down to 13.4
In other words, Weight effects performance on smaller engines big time!!

Tell me about it Although, my 1st timing I had 15"s on,m and 16"s really really didn't help the acceleration either.
No problems now though

i would say 1/4 in a couple of hours because the rust bucket nova will have probably broken down halfway up and it takes on average 2 hours for a visit from the RAC

8v usually has more torque than a 16v

8v have more low down torque but lose it near the top end, 16v will pull right thru the rev range
