you should rephrase the question.

How much power can I get for x amount of money.

More power = more stress on lots of other parts though so it not all just about power.

well got a few bits off ebay today, large front mount intercooler core and the piping will be custom made by myself and loads other bits too many to list but got loads of internal upgrades for my engine rebuild

engine came out last night and broke down ready for rebuilding a weapon for santa pod. looking to get in the low 12s this year with this corsa, roll cage is being custom made this weekend and interior stripped out.

rebuilding yet your project thread made today just said you poured sand into your engine while it was running to port and polish the head? Or has that fucked it so now you have to re build it?

Theres plenty places in the UK who will convert it to 4wd for you.Its a pretty common conversion.Just use all the running gear from a cavalier/calibra turbo.It will bolt straight up.
