Lol cool....but if you\'ve got a loud exhaust, imo you have to have the engine to back it up.

But cherry bombs are the dogs nadgers and should sound well good!

The vtr drivers must not know when to gear!!! As the vtr is one of the more powerfull 1.6\'s on the road, but a 1.4 corsa is like 90bhjp if its a 16v, and vtr\'s run at 137 bhp @6200 rpm...so they\'re pretty quick compared....

lol i know....the corsa has a realy long downpipe that comes off the manifold that sucks up the power i think.

Na ya cant, if messes the whole engine up apparently, vaux done it on purpose as the 1.4\'s and 1.6\'s they were making were running about the same power......so they slowed the 1.4\'s down by putting a long downpipe on it....if they didnt no-one would have brought the gsi\'s coz they would have just got the 1.4!

There is no way of sorting it, it controls the compression of the engine.....if you did try and do it i could imagine it costing 5k++ because you would have to near enough re-bore and change evrything...so get a 1.6 dropped in for £900!
