Standard is 0-60 in 9 sec approx.
top speed about 115-125.

Mines is running 118bhp from 106bhp standard. Not sure on times now..Not that much diff
I would think, Slightly quicker maybe.

This is when it's running well though, a bit sick at moment

hey mav, my 1.6 Sport is running really rubbish too at the moment. When its idling, i can hear the engine note rise and fall very sharply, like their is a mixture problem.

Cyber mine is going in today for a lambda sensor and maybe an idle control valve.
Getting oil/filter flush etc when there.
Are your emissions high and using alot of fuel?? mines is and garage put that done to
sensor. Revs rise and fall..Cutting out and struggle to restart as plugs getting flooded
as too much fuel being pumped through..

Hopefully fixed today though....

greasemonkey on my 1.6 had it well past 110 with 17's..Not really noticed a difference with my
17's.Usually notice on smaller engine cars....Alot faster than 12 or 10 secs to 60 too..I would get it
checked out m8..

i seem to be getting some crazy mileage out of a tank for some reason. I filled up with Opticrap, and nearly 330 miles later it was in the red. I drive fairly hard some times too. The oil is very old so it needs changing ASAP, thanks to vauxhall telling me they did an oil change before i bought it at christmas, but really the oil hasnt been changed since 2000. I wonder how much damage its had from this. I get no problems starting, just when its idling its a little lumpy. Might get down to vaux and tell them that warranty is still valid!

Cybermonkey, are you trying to say that your 330 miles to the tank is bad?

I'm lucky to get 200 miles to a full tank!

Mav, on a 1.6 with minimal mods on 17"s you will be looking at a 0-60 of around 10 seconds.

C16XE for those that asked, factory stats are

110lb ft torque
109bhp
0-60 = 8.9
121mph

X16XE has only 108lb ft torque
