realistically you need to spend about £3k+ to get 170bhp from the pug/saxo 16v engines.
great fun when you get there though!

and then even more to make it reliable at high revs. that £3k is based on standard internals.

i reckon you could get all the bits off 2nd hand and if you knew what you were doing fit it all for 1500 quid
then just the price of the mapping

right, ignore the let, who cares
as a basis of a car, the vts/106 is better than the corsa. no question about.

how is a vts not better than a gsi?
its faster, handles better, similar build quality, i fail to see how the gsi is better?

theyre probably built about the same, theyre better to drive, handling is far far superior.
if it was my choice between a corsa gsi/sport or a vts/106 id have to go with the vts/106
a corsa gsi std vs a saxo/106std is a boring boring car to drive.
