no no, they say u have to extend a brake pipe and run it across by brake servo!!! it looked so shoddy!!
and they were angle grinding the gearbox and scuttle!!
i didnt do any of this and mines a pearler.

i cut the bulk head to fit the power cap. didnt grind the gearbox, allthough it will be the random lug that they have grinded, had to on novas.
guess if you use the ecotec pipe you have to do none of that thogh

we are not slagging dans work mate, we are just commenting on how the mags putting it across.
reason why i never have writen a fitting guide myself as people will always pick failt with it (like cutting the lug of the gearbox which as soon as i saw it i said to myself why)

lug on the box is the old nova trick though to stop it hitting the tie bar. dont think it needs it on corsa. never did it on my own anyway.
but yeah beardy, no matter what you say or how you say to do it, someone will always say no thats wrong. not like built a few either is it? lol
