dunno. Schoey will tell you

Dom, 2.5 has 177bhp, 3 litre has 204 (book figures)

but, the red on there was RR'd at 190 something after Schoey sold it iirc, and the 3.0 is good for about 230-240 with simple mods, like decats, exhausts etc

and shitloads of torque, and they sound amazing.

ye theres about 4 3ltr corsas about in town atm, a 3ltr tigra, and a 3.2 mv6 corsa.
Not much difference in the 2.5 and 3ltr at all tbh. Not by the time youve got a lightened fly in them, a decat and a filter. Mine rr'd at 189bhp with 187 lb/ft with just those mods. As robin says my matyes rr'd at 211bhp with 3ltr cams in it.

A 2.5 with 3ltr cams is better than the 3ltr imo as it is a lot revvier at low range.

Not heard a 1.6 with an induction kit...but i've heard a few Cav/Omega's with those ITG foam filter jobbies and i think they sound awesome!!!

I had a 3.0 Omega MV6 once - I find it hard to imagine what that would be like in a Corsa...scary might be one word, specially on the twisty stuff lol

Is a 3litre Corsa quicker than a C20xe/C20LET Corsa?

Engine looks good under the bonnet tho.

Brilliant.

Would love that.

I'd change the alloys for steels though, and get the suspension level, plus i'd lose the bonkers sticker and get it filthy dirty.

Genius, seen that before. Wish it was located somewhere a bit nearer than Scotland though.
