Youre going to supercharge a 1.4? But you seem to know nothing about cams and what is "racing suspension"? Most suspension used for racing are adjustable coilovers with external reservoirs and judging by the rest of the car id say it doesnt have that. Also do you have a printout for the 125bhp or is it just an estimate? IMO your other car was better. Good luck though

Good luck with this (YOU'RE GOING TO NEED IT)
If you can get a mini supercharger to fit (and work) I will take my hat off to you but I 99% vouch that it wont be a good outcome.
For one,you're claiming very brave bhp for a standard sport with just an exhaust/no airbox and cams you can't remember the name of....then you plan to charge it.
good luck....SUBSCRIBED

Not on the standard gearbox you weren't.
Regardless of how much power you think you have, the gearbox ratios will stay the same, and on the 1.4 especially, it won't let you sit at 120 at 4k.
And 125bhp? Okie doke.

It's been done - someone on PNG used a Cooper S Charger on a 16XE with good results. Wasn't easy though IIRC.

Not saying it hasn't been done but it seems jay doesn't have a clue about life let alone charging a corsa.fair play to him if he does it

ROLF all over this thread.
Wont be 120, might be 100 though, which is still standard 1.6 power.
Mini cooper S chargers are shit for a start, and where are you going to fit it?!
Baxter over on PNG fitted one to his C16/X16XE hybird, but had to cut half the blukhead away, Plus it was never run proper as it was still standard compression, more use and it would have exploded.
Theres simply no room for a charger in a corsa bay.
I expect to see this car for sale on ebay next week, ya know after you still havnt paid mk4 boy back.
