not really possible to calculate, only way to know for sure it mod it and get it on a dyno
no point going off what the manufactures say as each engine is diffrent

Don't forget to consider the drop in power due to the mileage of the engine.

As to the estimate. Not a clue, should do something but don't expect the world.

not a pro on these engines but i know that the things you speak of rele will release only an extra few BHP ..well the remap could potnetially make a massive difference depending on the setup.....also add a cam kit to that list and that figure probably is realistic ..oh and give it a fat service 2 ..with engine treatment etc ....treat her well and she will reward you with horses lol !! also the thing with corsa's are short so can make for potent handling...put a nice suspension setup on it ( dampers and springs , anti roll bar and strutbraces) and it will handle like a dream. :D

okay the thing is, i have most of the things mentioned apart from the flowmaster induction kit (theres a k&n filter instead) and theres no decat. I'm planning on getting these soon. luckily for me all the expensive things i.e. the dbilas inlet manifold, were already done to the car when i bought it!
