Standard LET engine is 204bhp. If they are looked after and fitted properly there should be no reliability issues. | |

You could always super charge it! There's a place near me that's rumoured to be doing the first one in Europe! | |

are teh 2.0ltr turbo's unreliable? their 300bhp straight in arent they? how come hardly any people put turbos in their corsas? for the price they give a lot of bhp return | |

SBD's aren't the best as u have to wait for ur car to warm up before they will perform, cos if u drive with engine cold, engine will cut out until warm. ur better off going for something like webber etc. | |

I wouldn't say SBD are the best. | |

Grigllet has done a turbo conversion on the 1.4 bv mpi b4 and so has sum1 else from scotland not worth it at all, very unreliable and not cost effective, if you want best power increase per £ get a c20xe £1500 150-156 bhp as standard. | |
