Well I would say its not going to be your putting a xe into one in 3 hours, but it is doable with time and money

If you need to ask what is invloved, then to me that says that you aren't capable of doing the job.
If money isn't an issue, give the car and engine to some1 who is capable and tell them what you want.

If i was a potential garage for you to take it to...
I would rather u gave me the engine etc all complete and I fitted the lot, not you have a crack at it and then me have to spend rectifying things u have fucked
would probably be cheaper aswel

Brilliant engine, but fitting in one in a Corsa/Nova is a mission. The gearbox ends up sitting where the hub would be.
Theres a Nova with a VTec motor on PNG somewhere, and a couple with Swift GTi motors.
And as for wiring lol you ever looked at the size of the engine loom from a Civic, there about 2" diameter, the ECU is same size as an A4 peice of paper (Im a dab hand with VTec turbo conversions in Civics )
