Chris's nova has to be seen close up to be appreciated properly, its superb. Last time i saw him few weeks ago i think he said he ran a 13 second 1/4 at pod or york on 3/4 throttle running 9psi at 3/4 throttle as the wastegate wouldn't hold anymore boost or something at full throttle iirc. Christ knows what it will be like when its mapped

Whereabouts in sheffield are you Tim? what do you drive?

Btw, blue Nova is

Corsa C engine looks tasty. What do they think they are going to be running power wise? I think the VXR lump has been taken to about 360bhp thus far, but not with a huge sized turbo.


Chris's nova, thats the one thats done a 12.3 on a mild spec tune isn't it? (Silk grey nova).

Blue nova is just mental, but change those wheels.

Tim, whats going on with yours? Will it make the road again?

Yes I will make the road!

I've now got some management. Going to use same turbo as on the Corsa C too.

Yeah he swapped the Punto with Will, for a Corsa C z20let, which became donar for that car he has now.

The turbo on the blue nova is the turbo that was on the blue nova van

midlandvauxhalls - why does the manifold look rubbish? Welds look fine to me??
