ive got a 1.0 B drilled airbox and a exhaust. Not worth modding at all if you are doing it for "power" . trust me. If you're doing it for sound/looks it is a different issue. | |

you gotta be kidding me povey, boasting about having more power than a 1.2? you dont know what power is with that definition. the other guys are right though, better engine? new car? and if your saving for this V6, dont spend pennies on a useless 1.0? :) | |

My old Corsa B 1.0 was dyno tested one year at 54bhp and the next year at 55bhp (book figure is 54bhp), so this losing power over time stuff is nonsense. The second year it had the airbox resonator removed, Ashley backbox, K&N panel filter, and the side part removed from the airbox. Of course 1bhp isn't going to make any difference whatsoever though, so as Root says you may as well just use it for a couple of years and then get something with a proper engine when the insurance is more affordable. | |

I didn't have the exact stats to hand, but let's say it's 58, for arguments sake, I'm guessing your engine has at least 70k miles on it, meaning throughout the years, it has suffered some wear and tear, it will not be producing 58bhp no more. | |

Not worth it at all, just leave it standard and save up for a better engine | |

Even if it would, don't do it, apparently 1 litres don't like to be modified at all, else they run lumpy. | |
