Hey CorsaSport! I'm a MIGweb and RoyBacer regular but thought I'd come and put my oar in here occasionally.

I drive a 1991 mk2 Corsa A (Nova :lol SR:
- powered by 20XE, 166bhp@6466rpm
- rolling on 16" Allessio 2s
- suspended by Koni coilovers
- stopped by V6 calipers/discs

Here's some pics:

Just thought - your car might go a lot faster with the engine in.

Got lucky! It's a 20XE, so stock power is 157bhp at the fly. All I've done is taken it from the donor car, serviced it regularly and just before the rolling road I chucked some 10k boost through it.

The engine in the photo isn't the one producing 166bhp though, I'm on the second engine now!
