Nope. To fit the Z20LET you need to fit the entire wiring loom, traction control, etc. It's been done in a Mk 3 Astra in Germany and took about 9 months to wire in.....C20LET a lot easier as you can at least buy off-the-shelf parts now to do it.

M-Tech's site is www.mathijssentechnics.nl - PVD are the sole UK importers.
Kits range from £475 upwards.

If you're talking about the C20XE red top, then yeah about 500 quid second hand. £1200 won't buy you a new engine package.
Corsa B kits for 2.0 16v are £575-£675.

No those prices are for Corsa B. Corsa C is £2000+ and much more complicated.
The kits are designed for 2.0 16v and Turbo not V6's. V6's are much tighter for space, no quicker, and wreck the handling, so no kits are available.

mix cd = 50bhp
floor mats = 75bhp

Total power = 450bhp
