You don't even state what engine you have. Everyone talks about tbs on here but its mostly dreamers.

£10 says you don't get them.

I had tbs on my corsa, wouldnt bother to be honest. Unless its a track car I'd just put the money you'd spend into a better car. Tb'd corsa b money (done properly) = clio 182 or civic type r money these days.

I'm sure the kits phillips on about is dta ecu and jenvey dth bodies which are both good bits of kit,

Keep this in mind I've got a set of at power dth bodies I'm looking to sell for the right price, the top spec ones they do for the xe also.

At ones look rather special under the bonnet, supposed to have a smoother air flow than others?
