Re: Im soo tempted...
when i got it mapped it was 191 but i have had a milltek sports exhaust fitted since, so im not on its exact figgure now.
top end on a private road was 150mph before i ran out of road, which brings me to the next upgrade the brakes, almost ditched it!
a 2liter redtop kicks around 150 standard a turbo one is around 200, im hitting that with a 1.4 lol
if i wer you (and forgive me for saying this) dont buy another corsa b, swap your civic in for a VTI one
or even better instead of a honda if you like your jap cars, get a Glanza V

Re: Im soo tempted...
im thinking of either b18 civic,or maybe rwd 200sx etc this time next year
thats pretty insane power from a 1.4 tbh,must have lots of torque too im guessing? which is something civics lack haha

Re: Im soo tempted...
the torque funnly enough i have had to limit, because the 7speed dsg cant handle it (both clutchs are too small to transfer the power)
since the gearbox is £5k to replace i thought i best go easy on it lol
my mk4 diesel FR had nearlly doube the torque! altho it wasnt as fast at the top end
but overtaking it was stupidly fast, my new one i have to rev it but its alright you never run out of power with 7 gears lol
i must admit i dont like the 200sx theres not many jap cars i do like, apart from the mazda rx8, or the glanza v
supra isnt bad ether but they are a tad ugly!
