Is it worth it?
I am thinking about it
As I dont have the brains to do it myself I would probably get a mate to do it who works in a garage, but how much am I looking at for parts etc?
and will I be looking at problems in the future?

i think its worth it, your on probs 106bhp noe wiv the 1.6 the redtops are around 150 standard, and you can get good power of of them wiv some money put into them. and many people say the xe is much easier to work on than the 1.6 anyway in the corsa bay. so im doing it.
