I hope he proves all the doubting tomas's wrong - and even if he doesnt, at least hes got the balls to give it a go.

Keep up the good work mate

totally agree with this..if people didnt undertake new projects the modification scene would be boring.

Yes I can accept this as well, I could have had a 2.0 16v in the Nova but they bore me.

thats cause the IC covers the rad. I suggest getting a revotec fan controller.

it's electric but I'd rather loose 1hp than overheat, remember it's built for rallies/tracks so needs reliability just as much as speed

I will be interested to see the out come of this.

A Stripped 140bhp and 220+ft/lb corsa is gonna be pretty rapid. Whether its gonna be sub 15.5s 1/4 rapid will have to be seen.
