	yeh i knew about the gsi's with the x16xe just wondering what year the 1.6 sport was made for the corsa sport? is yours up and running yet james??
jr	posted on 5th Dec 04 at 15:10
	no as soem gsi had x16xe in them, and the were stop being made in 96 i think
bradfincham	posted on 5th Dec 04 at 15:08
	ah right, was the 1.6 produced from 1999 onwards on the facelift models only? That explains why lee manning then put the tigra engine into the corsa! That car is up for sale now im sure of it
jr	posted on 5th Dec 04 at 15:02
	yes the x16xe was in the tigra before the corsa
bradfincham	posted on 5th Dec 04 at 15:00
	yeh but thats just the x16xe same as the 1.6 sports! Did the tigra 1.6 come out before the corsa 1.6 x16xe not the c16xe??

	lee manning's old car ?
Icy	posted on 5th Dec 04 at 14:55
	lee m not lee mitchell used to have a 1.6 out of a tigra in his gsi now the guys in redlines (yellow one)

	In the Astra F, the X14XE has a different inlet manifold and throttle body (and it doesn't have the same induction roar as with the Corsa engine when fitted with a cone filter or drilled airbox), and the 1.6 16v is the X16XEL - only 100bhp, not sure of the difference between the Corsa and Astra engines.

	:P no worries chap lol If i was u i would go for a 1.416v out of a corsa b or tigra as its a reasonably an easy job to do,,,, i do believe the astra engines where different
