20PS increase is quite likely, it works on the same kinda principle as a mantzel power box or velos tourqe tube on a 1.6 corsa B, and these gain 22bhp in some cases

nah it aint bad really, my mantzel for my C16XE corsa was £585, so thats even better, the diblias is a quality piece of kit though, BUT if i was thinking about spending silly money on tuning my car i would probably stick a bigger motor in, trust me is something i regret, i spent £1000's on my engine and am now gonna stick summit bigger in
