Dons Corsa is running 145bhp @ the wheels.
About 165+ BHP @ the crank. It also has cams. Which again shows how great teh early C16 engines respond to tuning.
I really do think Vauxhall put in all the inlet manifold system to reduce the power..
Seen a few times where a C16XE has had an aftermarket inlett manifold put on, exhaust, and manifold, chipped, cams and is making over 160+bhp!!!
Great engines!

Willay, im not sure to be honest. I spokle to a lot of people over there. Cruising doesn't really happen. Just every so often. POlice wise they get pulled over it seems just as much as us. The French are not allowed to tune engines, and when i asked one guy about it he said you can but you need to get some kinda special permission. Language barrier stopped me learning any more

IMO opinion a degree means nothing ive got friends wiv degrees
Biological sciences at Cambridge - No job
Law degree at Sheffield - No job
in fact none of my friends that went to uni have got a job yet. A degree may mean that you're intelligent in a certain subject, probably means you're good at writing reports or essays, or maybe good at researching but doesn't make you intelligent full stop, or give you common sense!

Nahhhh, trust me, he wasn't picky!! He just couldn't get a job anywhere.
Even I took around 2 months to find a new job after i quit my old one. That was being 21 with nearly 4 years working experience (with quite a few major worldwide firms)

depends though, if your that classic case of a gimp who just wants to make loads of money you will probly end up in PC support helpdesk, on the phone on some 0870 number. Theres plenty of good IT jobs still around though, alot of them programming and sysadmining, these of course require skill thats just a tad more technical then reinstalling windows.

Nope I work for a firm wiv two male partners and a male tax manager and 15 girls between the ages of 17-28. My boss told me I need to spend more time chatting and less time working in my last review, he told us we need to spend more time down the pub at lunch time he doesn't like enforcing rules and trys to be as fair as possible. I don't think i'll ever leave here cause I couldn't think of a better place to work for.
