what you mean?? I'm running a F15 on 14's (which is actually a bigger roling rad than 15's. less interia though
Will be running a hgher final drive ratio after crimbo, limiting me to 136 on the limiter. But not at the mo
The turby engine will be running 2L flywheel/cltuch/gearbox, but not yet

currently runninga 1.4 16V on tbs and ful stripped nova weighing about 720kgs so roughly giving me 180BHP/tonne

New engine on way will be pretty good too, aiming on a sub 13 1/4
If you want value for BHP then 2L if you want somethign different then do what you want afterall it's your car.
My new engine will a turbby 1.4

yeah id go for the valver. ive driven a mi16 and the power and acceleration was immense, even if it was in a 405! 1.6turbo would give you bigger problems with insurance and id imagine higher running/service cost especially if the turbo should go bang

I already get trade prices for most stuff I want, and things I don't get at trade no one else can either ;)

ok i can see this thread was a waste of time :/

personally, i dont think its worth it. The majority of companies that allow sw-cc member discounts can easily be haggled with to get the discounts anyway. eg. Longlife exhaust systems

I'd be up for it, but I don't want to join the club, esp as I don't have a corsa
