since collecting car not really been confident in running it hard as there was few things that needed sorted fuelling, wiring etc got that sorted then had few small problems car was snapping fan belts for fun (6 in a week )as there wasnt any room for a tensioner on the alternator, how ever more money spent getting the car perfect as i wanted it and now have a custom mount on under side of engine with a spring loaded tensioner and its now perfect. Got the car back on friday after going out friday night was travelling home early hours weather was dry and was about to join motorway and thought right lets see what this thing can do pulled over and turned the boost controller to 1.25 bar, easy in first otherwise car just doesnt move got into second though and  car just absolutely took off hit 120 before id even got off the slip road car felt so quick and pulled so really hard. if i do end up keeping it i cant wait to get it on the Qtr mile and see what it can do.
300 bhp ish LET's in a corsa are so stupid but tell you what they are so much fun

you dont need to pull over to adjust the boost controller wheel. can play about with it as and when you want mid-driving.
