Sethion33 is putting 2.0 8v in his motor at the moment C20XE is quick enough, but getting close to 200 brake for the money you are paying is DEFINATELY worth it! Just be careful the first few days when you are getting used to the power.

yeh thts what i thought, will be strange getting in my car and having so much power. i arent sure how much he wants to be honest, neither of us have much clue, although if i get this engine, i will defintely get the throttle bodies.

getting decat done for free next week tho - got a new friend whos a mechanic (also an alcoholic who i met at work cos hes a good customer ) and hes gonna do it for my while teaching me how to do it, which is pretty cool. Anyway, back to your post, def do it! But make sure you have a good insurance quote. Only thing about insuring it in your mums name, is that iwth a car as highly modified as yours, insurance might realise its not your mums car

he will be doing cos i dont think he would like me beating him!
i dont understand why he needs more power, but am happy he does
if we both had the same engine, what would be faster? are astras heavier?

get this thing on a RR before you by it?
193bhp on std ECU with a shite superchump map is being a bit optimistic.

If all is well, ditch the ECU and hunt down a standalone sys, DTA, MBE etc etc
