Hi , im new to the forum and I was just wondering whether anyone knows if anyone is producing 2.0 litre transplants for a corsa c, or am I gonna have to wait till the Corsa turbo comes out to get some descent power? cheers

same sort of engine tho.,
ud still have to run 2 ecu's and shit.
who gave u the price of 4k?
noonster > the guy that owns the corsa c is the guy that makes pvds 2ltr nova nad corsa conversion kits. So hes made this car so that he knows how to convert others. at end of feature it says he will do the smae conversion on a corsa c for 13k.

Yeh thats wat he said.
said he could pop the engine in, in no time..but it was the actual making it work that takes the time and money.

no the thing is, Wait until M-Tech bring out the fitting kit for the Corsa C
as said before the fitting/mounting/shafts/hubs/mounts etc are all easy done its wireing in and a few other things
BUT Mtech will be bring out a fitting kit which you will have to run 2 ECU and stuff
i would say the fitting kit alown will be about 1500'ish
