how do all, i have got a corsa sport 1.6 , qiute nippy but needs more power... was thinkin about goin turbo route using corsa vxr manifold and turbo, or perhaps a 200 sx manifold with a z16xe flange.. using standard compression, but only on low boost, around 4-6 psi , anyone else done this? any other tips and weak points on this engine would be great cheers , also do any other pistons fit? that are stronger?

djbrowney would be better to ask as i think he was doing it to a c16xe but using the corsa vxr rods/pistons etc.

but tbh to do it right personally id go steel rods, low comp pistons(would have to be specifically made for low comp) then a decent ex manifold, power box, intercooler etc and ideally standalone management...and in that tie you could fit a corsa vxr engine and standalone id imagine
