    Re: Need help on c20xe corsa conversion

    XE's are good fun in a Corsa mate, just get in get it warm and have some fun!

    Took me a week to do mine after set backs we wouldn't have thought about but if they hadn't happened it would have been in in a couple of days

    Best plan is just take your time and don't Bodge bits together otherwise they'll break. If you need any help feel free to pm me or look through my project thread

    Just practically read through your whole thread! At work! Because that's how cool I am.... lol When you said "it pulls really well" did you mean you get thrown to the back of your seat if you teather the throttle a little bit? Or do you have to properly put your foot down to feel it? Also, any good on petrol?

    It pulls you into your seat mate and is only a little bit worse than the 1.2 8v on fuel when you're driving steady!

    So probably not much difference at all to my 1.4 at the moment! That's always a nice thing to hear. Suppose gear ratios etc. And yeah I understand if you are wacking the pants off a 2 litre. There is not doubt you WILL use a fair amount lol

    Also, check your inbox in a minute, want to ask you a quick question!
