How do, im new to the site so thought id come say hello.

I own two corsa's. A 1.2 8v slammed on 14's with a few subtle mods and a 1.6 16v sport thats hopefully pushing 150-160 bhp, might be a little optimistic but well see when i get it on the rollers, bodywork wise its totally ott but i love it anyway.

I am currently driving the 1.2 as the 1.6 is awaiting a respray.

Who am i likely to see from here around the Kettering/Wellingborough area?

None of the 1.2 at the mo but heres the 1.6 before the incident which caused the need for a respray! lol





I bought it a while back off a guy called Kyle, hes a member on here i think...

I think im going to spray it dark blue and get some white alloys. What do you think?

135-140bhp is my estimate

and unless your getting a complete new exhaust system, the SBD manifold wont make much difference as its 2.5" bore (if you already have a 2.5" bore exhaust then i am wrong)

Sorry forgot to mention the remap will be sorted before i expect 150bhp. New exhaust system will be sorted when the manifold is fitted.
