coz the 16v corsa engines were as powerfull as the ones in the astras so vauxhall used restrictive inlets to reduce power and so make astra look the car 'up' from the corsa. therefore on 16v engines by replacing this inelt with a shorter less restrictive one you can gain good power. 8v engines wernt so restrictive to start with.
from them mods you would only gain maybe 5bhp.
