karen was a 16 16v with a gmc rotex super charger it made about 170bhp and thats kinda pittiful for the money that went into it, was a nice car but spent that much time being broken that she finally broke it but god knows where the engine is now

Someone on mig made a C20XE with the supercharger from a new Mini, wouldn't fit in a corsa though as the charger would sit slap bang where the steering rack is. Probably have to cut the bulkhead away too.

the engine was sold as a 1.6 16v standard engine, without the supercharger. Never really ran but i know the XE has been supercharged just wouldnt fit under a corsa bonnet as some things have to be relocated to the back of the engine where their is no space in a corsa. Do a search on MIG
