big eck - car looks sweet. subtle 
vibrio - the green is a reflecting off the green garage door you plank.
Saxos - heinz tins... even all Saxo owners I know admit there actual pretty shit cars. MK1 Saxos look like slightly rounded Novas from the front. I don't mind Novas at all (bit old now but was once a top hot hatch), but the first Saxo was designed after the Nova was discontinued! That's some original design they came up with!!!
Corsa C GSi Turbo - unfortunately that has been delayed and due for release at end of 2004 now. Some Euro emissions bollox.
I only read pgs 1,2,3 and 8. If what I have said has already been mentioned... tel me to gtf

like for like a saxo will kill a corsa (comeing from a gsi owner that hurts lol)
but you gotta be a midget to own a saxo.
im 6'4 and fit in a corsa easy drove a friends vtr a while ago, and i couldnt look forward all i cud see was mat.
but then a corsa has much more tuneing possibilites.
anyone seen the 3lt v6 in tv? might be 2.5 only had quick glance

2 litre corsa does not rape a VTS... in a straight line will probably only JUST have the advantage... unless the xe is modified

you'll actually find its a 1.4 16v spoke b4 u knew didnt you and vibrio, basically its a t2 turbo reconditioned with bigger internals, on the site they come in 3 stages, stage 1 upto 150bhp, stage 2 upto 180bhp and stage 3 225bhp+, thats all it says, my turbo comes in now at slightly under 3000rpm and pulls stong all the way to the limit at 7000rpm, obdviously the higher stage will suffer with more lag but how much i couldnt be certain till ive got one!

to be honest i didnt read that much into it, was more bothered of the price, but it doesnt say anything about changing the original turbo which you send into them, so im taking it as they use the t2 and then use bigger internals, suppose they are maximum figures dependant on the amount of boost thats being run, i aint about to say i know much about turbos cuz i dont, suppose i should have a look into that really! yep my cars as light as a feather.

well to give you an idea. my IHI unit has a 29mm compressor and I can flow 1bar constant. a T25 in the smae casing with a 39mm compressor can flow 1.6 bar constant. 29mm boosts at 3000rpm, 39mm boosts at 3500rpm. 39mm a much better turbo

i see, well they replied to my request, stage 1 is a t2, stage 2 is a t2, and stage 3 is a t25, think ill be going for the stage 3, more fun then, more lag, but more fun when it comes in,
