feels easily as quick as another type of car which I dare not mention
This started it

I will argue the point though rob, after all I drove both cars that I am comparing in this threas and had them both on my dyno, I believe I have the right to stand up for my educated opinion, both rob and steve are both clutching at straws to stick up for the saxo, they havnt driven either car, not even seen them yet they seem to know which is quicker
utter rubbish

Yes but there was no need for your comment, and we wouldnt have 7 pages would we ?
Also how was my engine badly built, cause apart from fitting the engine, it was pretty much a standard vauxhall item. when it came to you we had just changed the head, but had never actually ran it like that, so how can you even say it was in poor condition. what part of it ?

yes I did put it in for a reason Rob, there was quite a few CS members there on the day, when steve asked if he was ok to post the graph on the net everyone laughed at the fact steve could post this thread without mentioning a thing about a saxo or a 106 and that you and steve would be on it like a shot to turn it into anothe wanky thread, like you do everytime.

Astonishing that a car with less weight and more power comes out on top.

Ok which part of the "engine" Dave, as ive said it was an engine built by vauxhall with an inlet on.

im asking you as you made the accusation that my engine was poorly built.
Thanks.
Wouldnt be surpirsed muppet.
Oh and id just like to add, i hate the way my saxo looks and i dont like the inisde, i much prefered my corsa's, and if it was as easy to make them as quick as a vts as its apprently stated here it is, i would quite happily have another corsa.
Hence why i was at PVS and up at 6.30 am and on the corsasport stand helping organise it and clean my mates car too
