My 1st was in B20 at about 2am felt so so fast on open roads, then i experienced the top end of a TB'd 1 running 230bhp at 6am on M1, both were great fun, a little scary, but great fun

The only problem is, after so some time on having the 2lt 16v in the corsa you get used to it supose like any car really, there not bad for power and for the money
had the 2lt in B20 for 8 months and at the end i was always wanting more
but i am just greedy
give it 8-10 months and you will be thinking eather "i should of fitted a LET" OR " how much are throttle bodsy again"

Just buy a dump valve. You can pick them up for less than £50...

My first experience of a 2.0 Corsa was when one tried to undertake me on a dual carrigeway.
It was my moral obligation to put my foot down so he wouldn't be breaking the highway code.
