Tried one on my old 1.4 8V but engine wouldn't run smoothly unless the valve was shut off so gave up. If you buy direct from ecotek they will refund the cost if you're not happy with it and it's a promise they lived up to as well. | |

I thinkhe means an ecotek fuel widget they are worth the money they make fuel consumption more efficient my mate has one on his nova an i wud defo get one as he said he's noticed a real change does make a funny wirring noise he said tho but u can hardly notice it if ur induction kit an zaust are loudish. Not sure if you can get em for corsa c tho look in maxy p or fast car to see where sells em then give em a ring:! | |
