In real terms etc, just how quick is a Corsa GSi with a standard C20LET and F28?

How can you describe how quick something is, other than BHP? And 0-60 times?
All on google and YouTube

Lightness and large torque mean in gear times are hugely quick which won't be told in 0-60 times.
The small shell, lack of sound deadening means sensation if speed is high.

Quick. Not bad launching on standard map. More and more power they just spin. Bad handling compared to other cars on the road as theres just too much weight up front. Awesome feeling in a straight line from 3rd gear upwards.
I've got one and will never ever sell it but couldn't drive it as a daily. It would piss me off.

Say from 30 to 100mph how would one be against a E46 M3?

Slower if its a standard let... as much as a let in a corsa is standard.
And aslong as the corsa is standard, ie not stripped to its wheels.

Loads of fun.
I had a standard c20let in my corsa (aside from exhaust and filter)
And it went like shit off a shovel, had so much fun, couldn't keep it in the end it was a license looser,
It was probably the quickest thing i have driven, (including evo's imprezas etc)

That's true, would you go to all the effort of fitting one and keep it standard.

Owned both, raced one in my Corsa (237bhp, full interior big wheels and heavy brakes) it would be probably quicker due to in gear acceleration. 0-60 the M3 would ruin it, but say 50-100 the corsa would out gun it with ease I would say.
Just don't go near any corners.

Friends 290bhp corsa wiped floor with another friends 354bhp mk6 golf the other week(which supposidely was quicker than an evo). Hard to compare a standard let to something as people have said majority are on some sort of chipset.
