No, can only really describe it, it was about an s reg silver corsa (started as normal sport) went to courtney for the conversion and mapping etc.

Lexus lights, wolfrace voodoo wheels I think, combat 1 rear bumper, inta front and sides.....

From wirral, this was 6 months + ago sso not sure if he has still even got it....

But my mate said he hadn't experienced any problems, and the conversion was over 3 months old I was sceptical but my mate aint got a clue on vauxhall tuning bits and doesn't lie

Yeah, Luke bought his engine for £3k off the shelf from Courtenay sport. Hit 60 in mid 7 i think, but deffo could have done better.

Thats the car that topped out at 6620rpm in 5th on his F13 box at 117mph.

Luke was driving like a fanny on that day as well and still managed a 7.76 0-60

Quarter mile time was wank though was'nt it?

IIRC the lad was telling my mates he was having problems with the power tailing off prematurely does this sound right?

Dont think so, i watched the video the other week. It pulled up to about 6000rpm then started to die off, but still ahd the power to pull to the limiter.

PLus it was pretty standard as far as tuning goes bar the exhaust, filter, manifold and turbo. Standard internals, and was running 13psi. Turbo conversions only usually run about 6-9psi
