Does any EM lights show up?

I have a similar problem in my 1.0 too, I believe it is a MAF sensor. You could try resetting the ECU by disconnecting the battery terminals overnight then reconnecting them in the morning.

If any lights come up on the dash when it runs like crap get the codes read, best off buying your own op-com, it will pay for itself tbf.
Try and swapping the Maf sensors around in your corsas (that's if they're both a 1.0) and see what happens.

With mine on Cold and most of the time, I cannot press the accelerator cable fully down without the car showing EML and slowing down, it instantly fixes itself when I let go of the pedal. The fault code I get is (O2 sensor low voltage). Anyway, My guess is that the maf sensor in your mrs car is faulty. Theyre expensive if you were to get new Bosch ones (and only get new bosch ones) but have this issue confirmed.
