It's going to Noble on Friday morning to have the map finished off, it'd be nice to get more bhp than my old astra (209bhp) and keep the torque pulling

Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

Great in the dry; if proof is requried check my on board 1/4mile videos, a couple of pages back

Diff is next on the list; haven't had cornering issues yet on a track so until I do I'm holding off. There's plenty more things to improve before that is an issue

Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

161lb ft
205.1bhp

Technically I've lost 2 bhp from last time; it made peak bhp at 7100rpm last time@ 207bhp

Only difference; I didn't fill the car with vpower prior to mapping

Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

No picture update.

Got bored this weekend so cut half the dashboard out and tidied the wiring up abit. It's not as pretty as I'd like but it looks purposeful at least
Cut out dashboard weighed c. 4-5kg so another good bit of weight saving there.

Plan on making some custom door panels up next month to hide the cut-out doors, and hopefully add a 'touch' of noise-reduction
