F10 (4 or 5 speed)
F13WR
F13CR
F15WR
F15CR

F10 is crap, it's only on the 1.2s and is weak.

F13CR is the best for acceleration, but not top speed
F15WR is best for top speed, but worst for acceleration.

If you have to ask if it's easy to fit, you'll find it hard.

Robin i dont think there was an F15WR in any corsa model...

F13 and F15 should have identical acceleration in all but top gear...

I'd take the f15 im pretty sure they are identical bar top gear and you would really miss that long final gear on the motorway when your car is screaming its balls of at 80.

not from a corsa but if you fit a 2.0l then you can use an f28 but most people dont as far as i know cause the gearing aint right for the engine

I must have the same in my SRi then, 60mph its just hitting 3k....i assume u have noticed 1st gear ratio is TINY??? You get to 10 - 15mph pulling off at a roundabout and you have to change to 2nd otherwise you end up sounding like a learner lol

WR has taller gearing, enables higher top speeds in each gear, but less acceleration
