hi new to the board, have just got myself a corsa c 1.4 16v and about to start modding, already have a shopping list of the following
first:
dbilas inlet manifold and chip
lexmaul manifold
full scorpion exhaust
second: (in 6-12 months)
ported polished head
omega pistons
piper cams and vernier pulleys
i need to know what induction kit will fit the dbilas inlet as i was thinking a pripercross viper but not sure if this would get me the most power! how much would the above give me looking for 130-150 bhp.
also looking for lightened flywheel and clutch.
any way hello everyone

You might get 120bhp with that lot, all depends how lucky you are! You dont always get the full bhp of the individual mods added together.

why spend all the money on 1.4 16v when you could search around and try and find a 1.8 16v from an SRI

jr has 136 bhp but that has got inlet, cams, a decent racing management system, flowed head, 4 branch manifols full zoorst and various other bits.
as for induction kit, use a drilled airbox, inductions kits could well loose power.

the car is 2 years old so warranty nearly up anyway. just spoke to someone a dbilas, apparently with the mods i have asked for should get 148bhp, didnt want a 1.8 as want to keep weight down as much as poss, going to strip it out so should be a track day monster. have decided on a Ram air induction kit and use a flower pot as a heat shield sounds daft but is meant to work very well have a mate who has done this on his golf gti.
