I didn't bother with pics of the Corsa, its is black, lowered with a set of wheels, also painted black! Sure you can use your imagination
Will know Nova's power when NMS have mapped it.
It is on gate pressure, which is 7psi, and it pulls hard. Full boost will be silly, and probably unuseable

The Corsa C is more for town, it grips and goes. Got a GT28 holding 19psi. Didn't even spin in 2nd. I was gobsmacked.
Nova is more of a raging beast compared to it. Though when mapped he could up his gate pressure to say 12psi with a stronger spring, and use that round town. With full boost more for roads coated in glue.

AK its not a case of maing a car like this for how it looks, that how the things fit on the front end, and you have to work round them.
Unless you mounted the engine about 5 inches back.
