Not sure what box was in my corsa now then........was led to believe it was an F20 (fitted by Courtenay).

My old Corsa (2.1 16 valve, throttle bodies, 8000 rpm limit) did 137 on the limiter in 5th at Redline records a few years back?

so..... how on earth can Vaux state a book figure for a standard c20xe'd calibra in the high 130's (136 i think)

IT will be geared to around 160mph at 8500rpm....

Are we talking possible speeds or real world will get to in 2miles flat speed?
