Yeah I think it's just a bit full on especially on a small car it just looks weird cocks the whole front end up when the reg place has to move etc etc also surely all it's going to do is block air flow to the radiator a bit and cause more lag

Ah okay no bother guys. I personally like the mean look with big front mount etc. Should be around 320-350bhp

So.

Had the corsa out for the first time a while ago and totally fell out of love with it. Hated the inside. Hated the way it looked at the front.

So, sold everything inside. Sold all cooler, one piece boost pipes etc.

The inside has been totally stripped back to bare metal and all complete gsi interior put back in. Ive also put all the window motors etc all back in now, so the inside is completely back standard which i love.

Got another grey gsi bumper that hasnt been cut. so intercooler is behind bumper now.
Also standard turbo back on.

Hopefully it runs alot better.

photos to follow

tbh i hated the way mine looked. much preferred mine when it looked like a std gsi with speedlines on it. regret a lot of what i did. id much have preferred a decent looking car that could be driven.

Yeah totally agree Nic. I hated it.

So inside is totally standard again and looks so much better. Just looks standard from outside now. Apart from bonnet catches.

Getting sick of it not being on the road. So put engine back to standard ish so it's slightly more reliable lol

Much prefer it when cars have there intercoolers hidden, having them hanging out the front of the bumper ruins the look of the car but if the car is built for racing on track down the strip for performance over looks then fair play.

Reading the first page of your thread is like reading a romantic novel!! Pleased that you managed to come out top-trumps after what happen, but not a fan of the picture above - personal taste.

Yeah totally. Everything's back standard on the outside apart from aero catches, height and exhaust. Then standard interior with a let under the bonnet. Simple!
