very good engines, Isuzu built and you will see good gains from a good remap. Obvious modifications to the breathing system will help too. I would own one

Somebody on here has one and says they can't be remapped, unless it's only certain ecu's.

Strictly speaking there a 3 turbo diesel Corsa C's, however only the 1.7CDTi would reach that type of BHP.

Very strange though, as the general consensus is they can't be remapped. Also, they're only 100bhp standard.

lol no it isnt.

The 1.7Di was the same for my girlfriend as a 1.2 SXi.

The 1.7DTi is more.

And the 1.7CDTi is more than that.

id rather have a vectra elite cdti, they are cheaper.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
