Can you super charge a 2.5ltr V6?
im guessing you'd have to lower compression, by skimmin the head...?
Also, how much would this cost roughly?
And how much would it cost (roughly) to get it in a Corsa C, if it fits...

Yes
Yes, it'd help
Lots
Even more, but it does fit
Regal sell a SC conversion for the X25XE. Ive seen it done on an astra but it involved some hardcore chassis arm modification, and i'd expect it to be even worse on a corsa!
Cost is going to be steep no matter what you do as conversions and Corsa C's dont go. Look at about £5k+ for the V6 conversion and then alot more for the SC conversion  .

yeah i wana go for it Ad.
Going to wait till ive got some NCB b4 i start being silly. i thought about getting V6 dropped in, then waitin a year to SC it.
should be a laugh when its done.
not too bothered about money TBH.
is the SC v6 relativly problem free, is it just fittin it into corsa that gives you problems with bits snapping, braking, bending etc?
dont wana part with my car thou, just wana put a silly engine in it.
any one on here have a V6 in corsa c..

If you skim the head it'll increase the CR mate...
