Been told off a few people that you can get the Corsa B 1.0 12v upto 100BHP Is this true or just bull?

If so how do you do it

Thanks

Unless you have money to waste then it's pointless, buy a 1.6 if you want 100bhp.

I doubt the 12v would put up with it for long though, the old 8v's are bombproof aren't they?

You could do so, but I think you'd need forced induction. And it would cost a FORTUNE. You could easily stick an XE in for cheaper than it would be to make a 1.0 reliably quick, and it'd still be much faster.
