Got my corsa back to work last night, spend a hour or so working on some of the oil lines so i could fit the oil pressure gauge, then tidied up one or two bits....

two videos of it running on the rollers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtkoVeE1zZ4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE5YgKK738o

this is the first real time the engine has run so taking it easy on the rollers to get it mapped to 5000rpm, sounds sweet as a nut, took it for a quick spin up the road, the noise is awesome! induction noise is so much louder than it ever used to be! exhaust is pretty silent tho which is nice!

videos are taken on my lg secret so excuse the quality

wasn't so bad before, its a hell of a lot louder now, got some peltor road cans for normal road driving, should help make it bearable.

throttle body noise beats anything else IMO!

Dave, yeah not problem with them

Oh yes I was going for a run up one of my favourite 'tracks' the other day. A jogger on the pavement put his fingers in his ears when I was about 75m away from him, he didn't take them out until I was out of sight
