surly these 3.0 v6 corsa's knocking about would give it a run for its money.

id easily believe 300+ out of a supercharged c16xe.

i doubt the corsa turbo in the link is the fastest either. i know of one that should be running over 400bhp

agreed on the 1.6 pushing 300+

as for the 2ltrs, one in brazil or wherever running meth is over 500bhp N/A apparently... I cant remember the link to it, but its posted on mig somewhere...

amazing how strong the 8v's really are, yes they do go (as adam found out) but they take alot of hammer!

[edit]im talkin about 2ltr 8v's here :lol: [/edit]

simon it is possible, think about it...

n/a tuned 1.6 on tb's with a 'slight' bore to 1.65l, can do 220bhp+ if silly money is spent

charged 1.6 therefor with enough spent will again make 300bhp+

there are 1.6 vts saxo's wth 300+bhp from chargers... anything is possibe, within reason...

yes but dont forget how restrictive and tame the vauxhall engines are factory tuned to...

becuase you cant see the point does not mean its impossible

well i wouldnt say you would have to go that far, but yes, it is possible

then again, make it low compression and keep turning the boost and fuel up, would make 300bhp no problem, but for how long is the question
