Yeah, about £500 for a quaife diff, they are meant to help a lot.

A f20 with (proper) uprated clutch will screw the box even faster as the torque that used to be lost through the clutch slipping will now be forced through the box. You want the weakest link to be the cheapest and easiest part to change.

A Corsa turbo with corsa exhaust would reduce power a fair bit.

is there not a different diff you can buy to try to and put that power on the road properly? and avert torq steer? if not then that would be a nice little invention

same engines in both (c20let)

exhaust will be custom downpipe & pos custom system too due to larger bore exhaust

there quick if you can get the traction, turbos on FWD cars aint really best suited, when they spool up thats it in any 1st 2nd or 3rd, more than likely get wheelspin in them all!

Same engine, I would have thought most of them will just use the standard turbo manifold too.

PVD do fitting kits for them, check out their site

they look very tidy. do you know if they use the origanal manifold (exhaust) or a custom 1? bet they're rapid on the road, till they get to a corner! hehe. are they from a cav or calibra? or are they the same engine's in both?

is it possible to shoe horn one of these in a corsa b? ive seen loads of astra gsi and cav gsi lumps but no cav or cab turbos. y is this? are they a pig to fit? or just too expensive to maintain?
