Engine upgrade

Post by SammyH »

Right, ive got a 1.4 16v engine atm and im after either a 1.8 or a 2.0 engine to dump in. But i dont know which is the best engine for the job. Ive noticed a lot of you have used either c20xe or c20let engines. Whats the difference? and how easy/ hard and how ime consuming and involved isit to do the swap. What needs to be ungraded with the engine?

the c20xe is a normal 2 ltr engine the c20let is a 2ltr turbo there basicly the same engine but the LET is the big daddy

if you want something cheap with plenty power look in to to the x20xev its a newer 2ltr ecotech engine, and is starting to become a lot more popular.
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!
