the idea of 20psi of boost driven through the front wheels in the wet at 70mph just turns me on

so basically the idea of being completely out of control of a car is a turn on? deano, your mad. thats the one thing i hated. doing 140+ still accelerating, hit a bump and the tyres light up and start pulling the car all over the place. absolutely awful and no need for it.

no, no and no.
if everyone here thinks its great having a car that is completely un-controlable, pointless to drive in the wet, dangerous and skittish at high speeds, good luck to you. you have no sense at alll.

exactly m8 it was bonkers in the wet just wanna spin spin in almost every gear , golf is just so much smoother and comfy compared to corsa , admitadly its a big heavy car which is alot slower than the corsa t , but it can still shift for a big car and makes a wonderful noise , i must stay of ebay also as there is turbo kits on ther for 2g's and is good for 300bhp on std internals at 6psi of boost , team muppetsport want a new project to work on

would feel a hell alot safer than the corsa ever would and still be comfy as its not getting a different engine its just some bolt on parts that will hike the power up.
