Alright guys and girls?
As some of you may know, I have acquired a corsa b 1.4 16v engine and gearbox, it includes the ecu etc.
As I'm gonna rebuild it before fitting, I wanna know all the performance parts that are available for the engine?
I mean all replacement performance parts, no turbos or cars and poo like that,
Thanks guys

Cams do you mean and not 'cars'?
Cams would be a good way forward, as you won't get massive improvement from external engine mods.
If it were me, cams, full exhaust system inc 4branch, a good enclosed air intake system and after those are fitted get the engine mapped to get the best out of that combination

Is there anything like lighter flywheels and close ratio gearboxes?
Literally anything to utilise the cars power without forced induction like a turbo

Yea you can do that, but that doesn't get more power.
I'm not too hot on corsa gearboxes, but the nova sr/SRi used an F13CR box
You can take your existing flywheel to an engineering shop and get it lightened and balanced.
