Naaa, you can't bounce off the limiter in 5th, it just won't happen.
P.S. 0-60mph standard is 16.5seconds, not in the 19's.
Not according to the Hayne's manual I have...
My post-1997 Haynes manual also doesn't tell you correctly how to change the heater console bulbs, so I don't exactly trust it
I'm talking about the Haynes guide to modifying the Corsa. Lists all the bhp's, 0-60 times, blah blah blah.

I was going to say, flicked through my maintenance Haynes and it didn't mention stats.
I like to follow the Parkers stats, makes your car quicker in an instance

Indeed it is mate, and this chap's post got somewhat overlooked in all the excitement.

Even for a 16v that's quick, how have you managed that?
just a 4 branch, remap and less weight

That's pretty good mate, a bit different to one of the 12 valvers though 
A whole cylinder different, in fact

A pretty steep hill then 
It'll probably do it even faster if it's a vertical hill, but you might not be able to drive it afterwards
