No wonder his opinion on Corsas is always so crap then. One of the worst models to have. Please tell me he doesn't base his opinions on this car
I did not have a red one. and it's not the only one I have ever driven.

A standard corsa does a good job as small hatch. most of the modified one on which I have an opinion of they way they look does not require me to have driven one

No I had the throttle bodies. The inlet has one air feed feeding 4 cylinders the throttle bodies (mine) have one for each cylinder.
Daimo, mine is hardly an inlet manifold.
Slightly better wouldn't you agree, just compare my times with times from people with a Mantzel box.

He has the claimed TB ones. However, i dont think they are TB at all. And its from Regal too. Biggest cowboys in the modifying market.
Hey, we can give 20bhp for the 2.0litre turbo with out new exhaust

Yes, and how many time have yiou had to get it sorted??
Your times were on standard wheels. IM sure Lee could get into the late 15's if he done that. Did u take your headlight out too
I could get my 2.0ltire into the 14"s if i wanted too. But thats not how it drives on the road.
I agree there is a difference between the inlet manifold and Dbalis kit, but they are not throttle bodies!!!!!

And how many Throttle Bides do u see still needing the aid of an Induction kit???
Everyone knows to gain proper performance times and serious engine tuning (i.e TB) you would not need the use of an induction kit!!!

Yes, correct. They are a form method around TB, but they are not actully TB.
You've put the prices down. How many other companies offer and inlet manifold for £750, and TB for £1k?? SBD's kit is £2k, and most others are as well.
They are a form of TB in the way the inlet chambers into the head, but for all effects, they are not TB.

My Dbilas 'whatever-you-want-to-call-them' throttle injector system is far better than any performance inlet manifold system you can get, I would openly challenge any vehicle with one of these fitted to any type of performance test and be confident of winning by a large margin.

How much have u spent on your engine Patric to achieve that power!!!!!! And what other mods u had done, flowed head, cams etc.
Tell u what, we will get in contact with someone who has the 1.6 16v on TB (say the 164kit) and watch that person leave you for dust!!!!

Daimo, I would fucking hope a tp164 kitted Corsa would whoop me considering I only have 142bhp at the moment. A few months back when I still had the cams and head and was running 171bhp it probably would of been close. Can't see a tp164 kitted Corsa doing much better than 15.118 @ 93mph can you?

Yes Patrick, running on TB, head work, Cams etc, i should expect more than 164bhp, more like 180bhp, and a faster time that 15.1 on standard alloys.
Your best time is 15.74.
And if they were TB< then why are you only getting 142bhp??????????
