you cant c20let a C, so it has to be a z20let...and tbh, it would cost you about the same as another corsa c to get fitted - people have had quotes of about 13k to fit

so it would be cheaper to turbo a 1.4 i would have thought. Only problem is all of the electric side of stuff, but do a search around mig and a few other sites (was a german website posted about a month ago that did turbos for 1.2s for the b, might do ones for the C etc)

i thought you couldnt do that due to the electric accel, hydro this and that etc?

oh wells, thats proved me wrong

eitherway, im sure it would be a few k job, fitting a c20let into a C like it is a B

yea, beardy said he would give it ago with free labour etc. But i think someone took him up on that

Just that ive never seen a vauxhall performance company, like Courtney, do any conversions for the corsa C - although they do do a z20let conversion for the B
