Std manifold is good upto about 190bhp....
Cams are only usefull if fitted with verniers and mapped
Headwork is good, but expoensive if not DIY

mine is standard bar a gas flowed head and it does 14.7 on street tyres. car is stripped a bit, but there's still more to do.

next performance enhancement wil come from cams and or a large manifold.

i'm also planning a slightly customised inlet with larger throttle body, but i'm not sure if that'll bring any improvements as the standard inlet seems quite a good design

alrite i just got a realy good deal on a c20xe engine and fitting kit.
was wondering what i should do first. i have got a powr cap, air filter, full system exhaust.

do only some performance manifolds fit into the engine bay of a corsa without coming into contact with the radiator etc...

i am looking to get throttle bodies for it when i get my holiday pay from ym work.

specs of other peoples c20xe's would be a big help.

thanks
