the bfo system from pvd is a good deal at the moment, and its 2.25" bore. the new inlet(if they do them for these engines which im pretty sure they do) will give about 15+bhp on these engines. well worth it | |

As said forget the chip, concentrate more on a decent exhaust and manifold set-up. Agreed with Miles, 2.5" is a bit big for a n/a 1.4 that's more suited to turbocharged or higher capacity engines, 2.25" at the most. | |

2.5" exhaust is too big. | |

What would an inlet manifold do? mines got a variable intake manifold, can modifying this give increases in power/performance? | |

i agree with adam kindness i had a superchip, when i swapped my engine i thought fuck it ill get a proper map, similar to a unichip, gained the 14bhp and 5lb/ft over the superchip! well worth doing | |

Im not looking at spending tooo much on it, what would u suggest I do otherwise? Im really looking to get the edge over my mates ZR-105 (mine is a lot lighter so I can drag him up a hill no worries, I just need a bit more..) and get a bit closer to his brothers ZS-120.. | |

warranty - yes, but the chip dealer may have some gaurantee policy. | |

Im looking for ideas about chipping my car. Ive got an ’04 reg Corsa twin-port 1.4 16v. Yeh, its quite fast already, but I want more!! I read that it is possible to chip the car to get a performance boost. I need to know some basic things |
