I don't want to go throttle bodies yet.

1. I won't be able to afford it for a while
2. I'll get bored of the power after a while
3. I won't be able to afford it
4. I won't be able to afford it
5. I won't be able to afford it

Oh did I mention, I won't be able to afford it.

Manifold can also be used when TBs are added and will work very well with them

Yeah about that Marc, that will do fine for a year, in that year I'll uprate the internals, THEN fit throttle bodies, cams, head work etc

Then I'll be looking at 170bhp

The Velos Torq Tube is a top bit of kit - very simple but does a highly effective job.

I had one fitted to my Corsa GSi with a Unichip, which was featured in the Vauxhall Sports Car Club magazine.
In return for the feature in the mag, Rob and Alan @ Velos agreed to VxlSCC members having 5%a discount off anything bought from them.
May be worth joining the VxlSCC if you're not already a member!
