Hi mate welcome, Not a fan of the Focus but that looks pretty good, not too over the top. Love the Fiesta, bet it's a great little toy, they handle quite well so I'm told. Love the colour of the Corsa, is it off the road at the minute?

fiesta is cool,

never really see the point in the 1.7 conversion though, its the exact same engine as the ZS just bored out and nikasil lined

you'd see almost identical end results tuning the standard 1.6 and far less cost

wow, there is some funny comments in here LOL

the cage is available, its a 4 point

gidged500 - yea, i own Northern-Modified mate the previous owner of the corsa had a play with a lot of cars mate. i saw it take a 911 turbo so im guessing if a type R did have a play it wouldnt have got far lol

Steve- not sure where the idea about it being a bored out 1.6 comes from? the 1.7 shares some items like exhaust manifolds, but the 1.7 is vct, and has a different head. to get to 150bhp out of the 1.6 you need itb's. i can get that out of the 1.7 for less money but each to their own

i agree with Havoc - the colour was some 2pack poor excuse for a spray LOL

yes thats true it does have vct, its eseentially a bored out black top zetec s block though, with the slightly different head having the vct solenoid and unit on the inlet cam as you state.

still i think any advantage you will get is minimal
