exept for the weight


Fair enough, the corsa wasnt designed for the weight on an XE but but your gaining 50 brake straight away which is for the most part why people do it, if I wanted a track car I wouldn't have a 20XE and my car wouldnt be lowered 80 odd mm but I want a quickish road car without having to spend a couple of k rebuilding my 1600 and the another couple of k on top to get throttle bodies on it.

Everyone moans about the weight of a 20XE like its another 100 brake 1600 but heavier
