well wouildnt a K&N and a back box make the car slower as more air quickly coming into the car but not exiting fast enough

does my theory sound sound! lol

i have never thought that powerflow are any good

yeh i had a pipercross on my 1.0 12v.....fits shauns (slsxi) car as well! his is a 1.2 sxi! sounded boss but im geting a K&N now to test that!

we do 2 the scorcha kit and the Taipan 1 and 2, cant post pix got no where to host em :(

they both giv out better perofrmance gains than k+n and pipercross, and giv a very very unique sound from them bein made from soft stainless steel

the 0-60's are all wrong and so are the max speed..

the pipercross ind kit for the 1.2 16v will fit your 1.0 no probs.
munchie on here fitted one to his 1.0 and it still sounded sweet!

Dun worry bout it being a 1.0 mate :lol:

get a powerflow if you want looks....if its on a corsa c then get a nice 3 or 4 inch round either side, shud still sound ok.

Iduction kit, speak to pvd...BFO's are kewl :D

i have pipercross and powerflow. v nice

I would advise against powerflow.

Cheap materials and poor quality. Although it does vary from franchise to franchise.

I would just get a back box from a decent company like magnex or mongoose as you aint going to see any performance gain anyway.

piper x are beter for the 12v engines mister. trust me ive tried em all!

www.geocities.com/corsa1zero go to the gallery and youl see a corsa b engine 1.0 12v with the piper x on it!

Yeah I am sure they do it for a 1.0. Have a look on K&N's website to see if they do, if they do then its a good bet PiperX do aswell.

Regarding exhaust, all depends how much money you got. Powerflow install would be about £350ish, where as you could just get a back box for about £140. Just back box will give you sound and little performance where as a powerflow setup should give a noticable improvement if done quickly.

cheers.. are u sure they do it for a 1.0l.. shall iwear a mask so they dont see my face,,lol

Well i would say :thumbs: to powerflow. I ahve one on my 1.2 8v and it sounds great. The induction kit could be bought @ Halfords or any other Kev shop in your area. C.A.R, R-Tec, Extreme, PVD (get the BFO cone) there are loads about mate. piper and PVD are the loud ones. K&N is more for performance. (still sounds good tho)

hi. ive got a 1.0 corsa c. :( i like it and i know there is no point doining anything drastic but.. i want an induction kit (pipercross if possible) and an exhaust.. but i dont know where to get them from. ive been thinking customised powerflow for the exhaust.(open to opinions).. but ive been told a 1.2 induction kit will fit my baby. is this true.. if not where can i get an induction kit from, whats the best.. not really bothered about cost as long as its not to stoopid.. it is only a 1.0.. thanks to whoever can be arsed to read or reply..
