Top end its alot better mate, it really pulls over 5k. Im gonna get some engine management sorted soon though to improve its overall performance. But im after a v6 throttle body, purple injectors and some fast road cams before i get the engine management sorted. But it runs fine on standard management at the minute as long as it doesn't get hammered.

duct tape is holding in the air mass meter, its cause of the pipework supplied by velos being thin and would split if the duct tape wasnt there to reinforce it.

VXR stands for vauxhall racing, its not just a range of cars. VXR was out way before they released the vxr range of cars. Ive never heard of a Corsa Courtney sport or Corsa SBD before if were gonna be choosy about what people slap on their engine bays

Yeah thats one of the Mantzel copies, the Velos torque tube was round. Alot of people on ebay are selling the Mantzel copies claiming they are Torque Tubes when there not!

Still, should be good for a mdoerate increase in bhp

Go get it to a Dastek dealer & get a Unichip on it
