Mine was quick but progressive then i noticed i had mini fireworks under my bonnet where the HT leads had split from the heat so changed them over and fuck mine it made a hell of a differnce it was spinning 1st 2nd and 3rd in the dry

As I said we'll be finding out early in the new year... Sticking it on a rolling road after changing injectors, leads and putting a proper exhaust system on it...

yes get it looked at, im sorry to say but valver corsa should be keeping with things like the tickford pumas which are 150 bhp i think, 306 gti6's ?? think thats name and no far off civic type r territory
my 1.4 16v engine used to keep with m8's zetec-s all mine had was 4-2-1/zorst/filter

doing a top sped run is quite a good for seeing if its fucked or not. When i first got my xe it really struggled past 110, had it rr'd and it was only 138 bhp. New engine pulls strong right past 130 but i havent had it on the rollers. I suggest finding a private rd or airfield etc
