My car is going in to "Jamsport" 2morow, for a fair bit of engine work.
The work being done to my Corsa GSI is:
PORTED HEAD WITH MATCHED MANIFOLDS
FAST ROAD CAMS
FULL ECU REMAP
SHORT MOTOR REBUILD, POSSIBLE POCKETING OF PISTONS
FAST ROAD CLUTCH
Ohh and if i can get hold of an lexmaul that will be going on 
So if anyone has one for sale, let me know.
Ill post pics of progress, and once its done ill do a lil video, should be quite nippy

no ur doin typical thing everybody does adding power up by what box says it dont work like that, typically u should only expect 4-8 bhp just from cams and remap, thats not to say there crap but characteristic of the engine will change and feel better its not just down to figures, its like ive always said if i was to remove 5 bhp from everybodys car on corsasport i bet no1 would notice thats how littler it can be
and theres no way ur gonna push 150 bhp with lexmaul yes its gr8 but u need to remove the restrictive bottom part goin round back of the engine

matt, seriously seems like its my old spec so 140 will be reaslistic, and it will be a noticable gain, will be fun to drive! you need to have verniers to get the most out of the cams and you cant run verniers on standard management. but as said it will be impressive when done

i think i need to get my car into Jam asap, need that pesky 1.6 first, then the cams and porting can be done, and i'll be hoping for about the same power as broster
