That is what i have been thinking with mine for next year, originally wanted Tb's but that would end up more expensive and have less power, but who knows.

Various places. Dave at V-Tuning done all my polishing, and the chrome parts I collected over a year and fitted all in one go. Theres about £600+ worth under there I think.

Its more available now. I think a lot of Ebay people do it.

Stear clear of Muppetsports favourite seller on Migweb though

I wanted TB's for mine then i wanted carbs. After the trouble jamesvalver has had i would defo consider a LET

Plus i think they are a tad expensive IMO.

Reliable power.
Useable power.

Not probably as fast in a straight line (boooring), but for track days the NA will be much better.

Only thing with TB is they are a lot of money, but by themselfs don't make THAT much difference. Its when you start headwork, cams etc etc... Which is when the cost starts going up, but then you start seeing between 200-300bhp.. (and shorter and shorter rebuilds

)

never really been on a track, but dont want to heavily mod the engine as its my daily driver, so would only be able to go that extensive if i was to get a second car and keep the corsa as a toy which is a possibilty for the future.

But as with everything in life its down to money, as there are more important things in life than cars
