me and my mate both got 1.4 corsa's
his is a 1.4 sport and i got a 1.4 sri 16v
and we were both going to go get a remap and he went to one guy to find out a price and the guy tried to say he wouldnt remap it cause the car wouldnt handle it
he tried to say the 1.4 engine isnt built well enought to remap it.
this guy is talking shit right??

Depends what you term worth it.
You may increase power with those mods but we're talking perhaps a few horse power later up the rev range for what is probably going to come in at a few hundred pound.
Perhaps worth waiting until you have other mods that would benefit from it.

Aye, but no point in doing anything with the standard inlet on there. TB's and standalone management or aftermarket inlet and re-map.
