1.4 8v - si
1.4 16v - sri/sport
1.6 16v - gsi/sport

:D

16v sports and sris are faster than 8v sris (82ps engine)

Our first Corsa was a 1.4 8v - on a hill flat out at 60 it lost spped to 55 or less, foot fully down. you couldn't over take in it with a miles space. I'd highly recomment a 16v. My 1.2 16v out performs the 1.4 8v by miles. When we traded it years ago we were told by Vauxhall that the engine was slightly "fluffy" though. It was too technical for me to understand. :)

I'm wanting a 1.4 but not to sure, what gives more power from standard? I've heard the 8v sri's are faster than 1.4 16v sports? What do i go for?

i know this because when i was looking around for my car i came across loads of 8v and 16v sri's... all with the si badge on the back.

some GLS models which have the more powerful 1.4 engine also have si on the back.

no the si's were 8v too....

si was put on the back to indicate multipoint injection as opposed to single point injection on the 1.4 hi-torque engines.

the 16v ones are si's

dude u dont wanna get into what corsa wot lol just know that they made 1.4 8v engines up to m then they was 1.4 16v too

So not all sri's are 8v then?

i got a 1.4 16v SRI

sri's changed to 16v 1.4 on M-reg, there are a few 8v sri's on m plates too though.

all GSi's are 1.6 16v

So u dont get 1.4 8v gsi. Thot it was 8v sri but wasnt sure.

1.4 8V SRi
GSi is 1.6

Right, do u get a 1.4 16v sri? or is it 8v? If it is 8v is it quicker than a 1.4 sport? N are all 1.4 gsi's 8v?
