hello, any body got any advice on what to get. just got rid of my corsa b sport 1.4 and want the newer shape 1.2 or 1.4 but cant make my mind up.

what ever one i get i got certain mods in mind to do straight away and a few for the near future. i will imiediatly lower it and put a set of 17's on it, tint the windows and put a cat back system on. then was thinkin of performance mods, including:

ECU remap
4-2-1 manifold
DeCat
New air filter
Maybe if its worth the money, a new chip

what power do you people think i will be pushing from both the 1.4 and the 1.2.

will there be much difference in the performance and reliability between the two cars?

need some advice ASAP as i need a new car within the next two weeks really...

thanks
Joe

if either of them get a 1.4, we have a 1.2 as a pool car at work and its crap flinstone style' so slow. i would of thought 1.4 is/should be a bit quicker

Edit: What you doing with the car you got at the min?

I've got a 1.4.

When I was looking, I drove 2 1.2s and 2 1.4s, the 1.4s were FAR better, the 1.2 was terrible compared to the 1.4.

u2u me some pics of your B
