was thinking of getting a 1.6 16v instead of my 1.4 16v, but there's a cheap c18xe in good condition with conversion kit ready to go under my corsa's hood. no problems at all with swapping the engine, everything running smoothly in another corsa rigth now

what do you guys think? should i buy it, or should i rather wait until i find a decent 1.6 16v and then tune it to ~150ps, or rather go for stock c20xe (which i don't really like, and didn't find any good one..)?

anyone has any experience with tuning c18xe? does this engine has anything in common with its bigger brother - the redtop c20xe? is it any lighter than 2.0? i've heard that it uses the same camshafts as c20xe, am i right?

i put the x16xe engine out of the corsa sport 1.6 16v in my corsa 1.2ls and its great, only cost me £400 for everything needed.
