Yeh it is pretty cool Not exactly a c20let under the bonnet but most people that dont know their corsas think its just a 1.0 with an exhaust so will be a surprise when you fly past them

I think if you were to 'fly' past them they would know it wasn't a 1.0

De-cat, cats are far too restrictive, the difference I noticed in mine with the cat on for the MOT was shocking, it came off the day after in work and the de-cat pipe went straight back on.

Yeh im leaving the cat in till the mot is done (march) but no doubt the decat will be in to stay their. I like the car quite loud with it being stripped and all that adds to the go kart feel

Update: Front suspension isnt the best setup in the world and thought i'd get a new set up before i get the tracking etc done with the new wheels, So i decided to go for a TA technix kit on the front and im going for Gaz adjustable rears on the back so my 110mm springs thats on atm will be for sale soon i think
