Well that all depends on management and what other modifications you do.

Why get yourself tied up in BHP, its just a number?

After reading TV last night it made me want to build a V6 Corsa just for the fun of it.

Can the 2.2 be fitted to a Corsa?

If money is no object then I'd go for a 1.8. Hand it over to Warren, throw money his way and let shit happen.

I say V6 as well, just because it's a bit more interesting (imo) than a LET and I want to do one
