he did have pics of it up on here not long ago. running on megasquirt ecu i think it was. be interested to know what its running these days as havent heard anything other than its over 600bhp.
so yes, thats definitely the most powerful corsa that ive heard of in this country anyway. worlds ahead of mine anyway.

A Gt30 is the one down from nic's turbo I think. Im sure nic's is a gt35r. A gt30 is still a big turbo that can reach 500bhp just I think.

ive had 480 odd on std inlet. although it was crap. power suddenly drops after 5500rpm so its not really all that driveable. short burst of power.
