Looks quick but the engine won't last long if he keeps hitting 7500 rpm every gear change.

Nope. I sometimes hit 7000rpm in my corsa. It shouldnt be able to do that, it screams when its that high and i get a litte puff of smoke from the exhaust on gearchange. FUCKED!

not standard vts - probs induciton kit, zorst, de-cat, cams

im not sure, but its running 14.9 1/4 miles so id guess at about 150-160bhp

indicator is on aswell as he did it on a motorway, the engine management light is orange at the bottom of the dash, it does come on duing the vid

all it has is a sealed induction kit and an exhaust.

perhaps one of the rare 130bhp VTS's.

uksky> in a straight line pretty equal, but if any corners are involved, ha ha, the VTS would win.

the saxo is a much lighter car therefore the power:weight ratio is higher. plus they handle brilliant for such a small hatch

the 1.6 16v gsi engine is underpowered at 106bhp but this is easily tuned

the 1.8 16v is just a crap engine thats been lifted straight out of a vectra, not made for performance, and the corsa c is a very heavy car
