my mate had a x16 on debilis management, inlet, cams, pulleys, nortech exhaust sytem, rebored to a 1.75 and it was a naughty little thing, but had to have a rebuild every other week as it kept destroying rings, | |

The x16 is fine too, my 180bhp one was a x16 bottom end. | |

That's mint so is it better to go for th c16 rather than the x16 as I had an x16 before but ran it on a 1400 ecu and was rapid as I'm open to ideas like as I don't want to go higher as I had an x20xe and did not like hit to meny problems | |

i have been doing some serios thinking about witch engine to use in replasment of my little 1lt i have heard a romer a long time ago that the C16XE corsa GSI engine is roumer to have 150bhp as standard on the first corsa gsis and that the corsa gsi was recaled to be restricted to 109bhp for insurance resons how far this is true dose anyone know at all as aparently u just de restrict them and u got 150 bhp to ya foot and witch engine is better for tuneing the C16XE or the X16XE and witch is stronger |
