The corsa is a very sturdy machine, much more so than the Novas. It can swallow a 20xe with ease and not have to strengthen it at all. Just get a decent suspension setup for £200 and you will have a very nice car. Dont forget some astra GTE brakes too :)

Not even remotely worth a full system. You may see a 1/4hp increase and about 1/2 l/b ft torque. Just spend you notes on keeping it well maintained, not blowing it up.
