retop - 150-155bhp
0-60 in a corsa, about 6.5-7.5 seconds (depending on wheels).
Chip, filter, zorst, ur looking at about 160-170bhp.

Wat, including the engine?
Also, speak to Lee Mitchell as he's done a few 2.0litre conversions now.

cut a long story short, bought an engine mount kit, gave my motor 2 a bloke who does conversions, n when i got it back, the mounts were put on with a crap job and engine was sat at an angle and also the driveshaft was welded to the CV joint so i could drive it . in the end cossvaux sorted and did a quality job

Adam. Let us know your 0-60 times when you get them. I think 6 maybe unrealistic to be honest. My car only does 6.1 seconds in the damp. Just under 6 in dry. With an LSD I'm hoping for a bit better.

Why doy you need a new suspension? is this to do with the weight of the new engine?

6 is a bit quick for a car without a LSD.... look at the times of the corsa vs saxo day....
They are 7's for std valvers
high 6's for peeps with tuned valvers
Only way your gonna get low six is with a LSD, the car ive got is 190 bhp with throttle boddies and was 6.2 to 60 but low 13's 1/4 mile, F16 box with LSD
