Has any one got any pictures of Corsa C With 18's on. Thinking about a change
Just got my new model Corsa C with new bumpers lowered 40mm on 17s 100+ Vulcans pictures to follow. Was wondering are the new corsa Cs 1.2sxi faster than the old Corsa Cs, mine seems to be had 110 quite easily and still had more as well, no zorst or induction kit either and no wasnt going down hill was going up slightly. my old Corsa C could just reach over 100.
Also what exhausts do you reccomend for Corsa C 1.2 was thinking about a custom twin oval from powerflow. or are www.exhaustsuk.co.uk better.

The reason it only reaches 105Mph is because at 5,650 RPM you are starting to loose BHP, so at 5,600Rpm you are doing 106Mph, but if you're going downhill, or down wind it will rev up to the limiter which is 120Mph.......

I noticed that, i think he meant rpm not bhp! pmsl!
5,600bhp -> Yes please! Difficult to get traction i'd guess.....
