Thats quite interesting,

What management you using?
Is it standard compression? or different pistons, decomp plate etc?

Got a build thread or some pics?

Old user on here had one using a Mantzel box.


Ran 0-60 in 7.39, and topped out using the F13 gearbox (1.4 16v etc) at 117mph in quite a short space.

I have a video on my youtube under Corsa Vs Saxo day, but I can't get on at work so u'll have to search.

My YT username is D4MOB, then just got through my vids, its on part 2 or 3 probably.
