I have no issues with quality either- had it 2 years - Jaffa had it 2 years b4 me, some1 else probably ahd it b4 them - basically its at least 5 years old and not one bit of corrosion or issue with the back box - infact its better condition than my sisters 1.5 year old magnex

I had one too, centre section and rear box.
no issue with it, no rust and sounded well nice on my 1.4 16V.
worth getting for under £200.

hi ryzer and every1
my sri is black, only mods done are removal of red strip and debadged, remote start alarm, ice install and a smart set of seat covers, soon to do the door cards aswell.
havent done any other mods though, i wanna get the sebring pipe with a remus racing centre pipe, and then thinking of getting induction kit.
thing is no one seems to think they do anything though, i was just gona buy the cheap ripspeed carbon airbox with cold air feed for £60, it should sound ok and all its doig is filtering air aint it. it should also get around the sucking in hot air problem aswell. like some cones do

ignore Fad he's the black devil, i have one its fabulous  it sticks out in line with the corsa bumper which is wat i like for the smooth euro look:
also if u dont like the angle then rebend the 2 prongs as shown in the 2nd pic so that it sits out straight jut be careful and do it under heat

Got sebring backbox and standard sxi vauxhall centre, its a nice note but tbh the sebring with a sebring centre or remus is awesome sounds real nice so if ure after sound i'd go with that if not then stick with standard...
either way its nice and the wheels r 16" lowered 40mm at the rear 60mm at the front

195/45/16 Toyo Proxes on 100+ RVO 5 Spoke alloys... arch work was really just unbolting and bonding the arch on at the front and back (bear in mind my back sits about 60mm due to the ICE install) and then i did trim the front arch but that was just for my own personal comfort of knowing it wudn't scrub in the future...
main problem from lowering is my exhaust kncokin on the axle but that can be sollved by fiddling about with the position .etc
the suspension kit is FK Automotive High-Tec 60/40

et 49 is perfect for the Corsa B so go as near as that the majority of wheels are in
et35/42/45 mine are 45 and therefore not many problems, i'd say try for 45 to avoid major arch issues... 42 may be pushing ure luck a bit
