its difficult to describe how much it changes it, only rear way is to drive a standard 1.6 then jump stright into this

is does make it feel more nimble and certainly makes you feel like your going faster than you are because of the noise etc

You can get corb to reduce your car's weight by repeatedly bashing it with his head until the paint (and any dirt) comes off.
