well it just so happens that it went on the rolling road today!! :lol: haven't had time to upload the pics yet, but will do shortly. Only know bhp and torque which i will reavel when i do the pics :lol:

Vauxhall offical top speed in the Vectra is 145mph, my speedo only goes to 140mph so may struggle with this (and of course need to try to find private test track to try) No idea on 0 - 60, have to time it.

Might be taking it to a RWYB at Santa Pod sometime so we will see! :lol:

yeah, i know that cold feed intake looks a bit crap and something a bit better will be done with it soon, don't worry :lol: I did start a project log on the 2 ltr conversion Corsa it should be on here somewhere way down the list. Unfortunatly it has taken a back seat of late due to other commitments and currently has no engine in it! with the new engine sat in me Dads garage waiting to go in, i have all the bits to do it except the time :lol: Hopefully will get it going again soon and will update the project thread!! :)
