1.2 pushing 105bhp...

wot is it standard? 65-70? I reckon 90-95 bhp with all that, but as I was told by greasemonkey (wots ya real name? cant call u that

) u'd need to uprate the internals a bit

me names KRIS lol, 100BHP from these 1.2 is totallt possible, ya just gonna lack the tourqe of the bigger engined corsas so you wont have the acceleration up hill and top end speed, when ya revving 7500 its wise to uprate the internals, but ya CAN do it without, i just reccomedn ya dont

hi Kris

yeah I was thinkin that the low-down torque wud be lacking so if ya got to a hill u wud be dropping gears and booting it all the time (so I think ne ways

)

ya will gain tourqe but little bits, a turbo motor normally has summit like 200BHP and 205ftlb or tourqe so they are rapid, a corsa GSI thats got 150BHP will have say 125ftlb of tourqe ya see the dirrerence, its about forced induction and displacment. although i have an unusually high 139ftlb in my GSI!!!!

surely when u bought it ya wud know it'd lack power being a 1.2 ... I just odnt get y ya wud wanna put in a 1.8 engine when ya cud sell ur car n buy a 1.8 where all thr brakes/suspension wud be able to handle it where-as u'd put a 1.8 in a 1.2 shell and u'd then ave to uprate ya whole suspension to take the weight and power also probably new exhaust as I think the bore wud be too small on ya 1.2 for a 1.8... I aint trying to diss ya mate just my opinion and trying to help
