Janspeed ones are better and cheaper.

Does anyone know if this one fits the C16XE?

I seem to recall there being an issue with them not fitting.

Olly, it doesn't fit the C16XE if you are using the standard cat that came on the car, assuming its a standard Corsa GSI.
However, if you use it in conjunction with a Janspeed decat, X16XE cat or custom decat, you will have no problems at all, although the SAI hole in the manifold will still need to be blocked up IIRC.

I used a bit of 2mm steel plate and shaped it to fit, with a small piece of the old exhaust gasket behind it to help seal it up:

So any decat will work with it? Just weld a plate over the SAI hole?
Janspeed decat? Where from? I've seen some Hoffman ones on ebay that look really good for the C16XE.

Would even need to weld a plate on it OJ.
I just spotted mine up with the mig set

As far as I'm aware, the difference is the length of the C16XE manifold and cat, such as the manifold is longer than the X16XE and the cat is then shorter (or the other way round, you get the picture).
Basically, as long as you use the two combined, the rest of the exhaust system from cat-back is identical.
The manifold can be bought here for £157.63 delivered:
http://www.dcdezign.com/products/janspeed-exhausts-manifolds/vauxhall/corsa-b.html
Whilst the decat can also be bought from the same site for £98.75 (excluding delivery):
http://www.dcdezign.com/products/janspeed-exhausts-de-cat-pipes/vauxhall/corsa-b.html
Total price delivered for both is £261.38, not too bad tbh. Its where I got my manifold from, but my decat was secondhand. Highly recommend the janspeed gear as well, fitment is excellent!

Oh, but to answer the 'any decat' part of the question - If you are using an X16XE manifold, you can't use a C16XE decat, due to the different lengths.
