why do you want a turbo corsa? can you afford to do it? can you afford the insurance? can you afford it when things go wrong etc?

its not like a 200 quid xe that duck tape and a rizzla can fix

its the afm that limits it.

i never said it was. I fancy a turbo corsa as i have had an XE so would like the next step up. Yes, Yes, depends on what it is when it goes wrong, anyway i have never said any where along the line that i am actually doing it, was playing with ideas and finding out the pros and cons of owning a let.

just seriously think about it first. if you have to pay a garage to fix things if things go wrong, its maybe not the engine for you

as it can only flow x amount of air that the hot wire is able to process. cant remember a figure ottomh but going to am management eliminates it with a map sensor. (dont shoot me)
anyway to answer the original question ok if you can afford it as the arnt the most reliable. probibly easier than the average woman though.

ive got 3 bar map sensor in mine, seems fine with the std afm. has run 400+ on different rollers a few times on motronic.

but, i would change to management if i could afford it. im going to ask dave a see what he can do and at what prices seen as vsport isnt tha far to drive. hopefully he can help even though i took the piss out of him the other day.
