people who exaggerate bhp

[Pat_Vts]

why???

this corsa claims to be 170bhp

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/588407.htm

after seeing his corsa last night rest assured it isnt 170bhp i would guess slower than a VTR

[Barry123]

horse power sells cars...

[potatopete]

Dunno why people do it....

Having said that, my VTR really is 300bhp. No, it really is....





:P

[Danr]

If it's slower than a vtr then something is seriously wrong.

[Elliott]

If it's slower than a vtr then something is seriously wrong.

aiiii agreeeee

[Paul]

I dont think thats exaggerated....

[smiith]

some people estimate dont they, and go off production claims...

"well exhaust system is 10bhp, induction kit is 10bhp, decat is 15% of my cars power.."

and they just add a couple on for the sale

[Yates]

its a red top

150bhp standard, with mods

probably 160

it will smash a vtr to bits lol

and it will kill your vts lol

[Yates]

pat vts - FAIL

[Clouds_mate]

Question i ask is....Does it really matter? lol. Seriously.

[G1nge]

i would guess slower than a VTR


dont be so stupid, the redtop lump is around 150bhp (standard) depending on what car it came out of. Then its in a corsa of around 900 odd KG. And you think its slower than a VTR?

My Astra GTE has the same engine, weighs more and is faster than a VTS (mate has a VTS) So dont think a 1600 8v would have a chance.

[OLLYVTS]

I was looking at this earlyer it probaly is running near to 170bhp imo.

Why do you say its not?

[Chronic-2001]

unless he had rolling road results to prove it then i wouldnt believe him.

One of my mates recons his 110cc pitbike is 30bhp, he guessed it was 15bhp new and then he bought an exhaust of ebay thats suppose to add 15bhp, Completely ridiculous, it would be lucky if it was 4bhp. People sometimes believe the figures companys give them and add they onto the parkers standard then a few more because theyve looked after it!

[smiith]

YES!

silly Leckie, obviously it does!

mate its a 150bhp standard engine to start

decat
manifold
filter
unsure what TB would do being enlarged

so id say its over 160, so your gona push it up a bit for sales value

[bullit]

pat vts - FAIL

lol. it says massive air filter, thats the clincher

[Mattt-VTR]

HaHa lol, someone got told.

[Pat_Vts]

mate, i can confirm it isnt

i raced him last night, yes i know street racing but

kept going up his arse in 3rd had to back off and push again 3times or so, iv got std VTS ... then i went to overtake him after the slip road onto the duelc

i reconsiged that corsa off pistonheads and saw tis last night n thought is it off pistonheads and checked and thought hmm 170bhp?!

VTR would have overtaken him too im sure... not as qucikly as the VTS but it wouldv gone past him lol

[Yates]

it wasnt that car for a fact then

do you really really think that a vtr would over take a corsa valver?! no chance

i doubt a standard vts would either, my vts is 150, i think it would be close but no chance standard would

[Pat_Vts]

explain how a 120bhp VTS beat a ''170'' bhp corsa easily

its defo that corsa btw

(got disconeccted)

[OLLYVTS]

after seeing his corsa last night rest assured it isnt 170bhp i would guess slower than a VTR

How can you tell how much bhp it has got by looking at it lol?

Edit;

Just read your other post.Maybe he is a crap driver or was not going for it.It should kill your standard vts.As yates said they are 150bhp standard,it might not be running run but if it was then it would be near 170bhp and defo quicker than a vts.

[bark]

The XE engines are 170bhp as standard at production!

Giving that the engine is looked after and mods done properly it should still be around there!

I've got a friend with an LET running 270bhp, so that kind of silly power is easily achieved!

And how do you know how fast it was capable of pat? you not try and race it like you always seem to?
TBH think somebody would waste petrol racing a VTS when he knows he's running that amount of power?

Some people have power and don't need to make up for a lack of penis, like it appears you suffer from pat ...

[Mr_suv]

dont know thought he would reply to his thread at least
edit:he is decatted so was it really screaming, as i know older vauxhalls tend to sound like they scream even if they arnt being thrashed!

calibra engines more then bark?

i know mates with the cav redtop engine, think its sri model and its 150

edit thought it was calibra engine but says cav

[Pat_Vts]

i can hear his exhaust it loud!

he was going flat out end of lol

[Pat_Vts]

it was... same stickers

same exhaust

3 chavs in it

N reg

excat same corsa lol

[Yates]

it was... same stickers

same exhaust

N reg

excat same corsa lol

did you have you fogs on? it could explain how you beat him...

[Mattt-VTR]

Wouldn't 3 people oppose to one person affect performance though?

[bark]

calibra engines more then bark?

i know mates with the cav redtop engine, think its sri model and its 150

edit thought it was calibra engine but says cav

I think so, i've been looking into this quite a bit of late.

Debating on whether to put one in my kids car!

I mean even still if it's 150bhp yates, surely the mods claimed should create the 20bhp difference?

[Pat_Vts]

im just saying hes exaggerated the bhp of his corsa thats all ...

[Mattt-VTR]

did you have you fogs on? it could explain how you beat him...

Lol, ouch.

[Pat_Vts]

did you have you fogs on? it could explain how you beat him...

no i didnt lol

my mate in his fiesta ST did though and he did beat him too lol:homme:

[potatopete]

Haha! Class!

Good argument, btw.

i still think it could be just over 160, and in all fairness you would just bump it up to make it sound better

if your kid doesnt have experience in a fast car dont put one in, i know a few mates who have binned them and been lucky to walk away

[bark]

I'm afraid to say this like, but your mistaken.

That car vs your car = you balls deep and dry!

You would have been royally done over!

[Yates]

maybe by 5bhp lol

[bullit]

it night just be a fucked engine

Yeah that's one of the things running through my head at the min.

I mean it would be long term, and have plenty of people who would help if need be, plus I want to play in another one! He's got an alright shell at the min which could easily be put up to the scratch!

One it's done i'll race it in my vtr and get the same results as pat ...

[Pat_Vts]

it was fooking loud

sounded like skyline? that kind of loud lol louder than a scoob...

not saying YOUR corsa

THAT corsa

no need for the e-hardness

[Pat_Vts]

it night just be a fucked engine

thinking about it most likely tbh...

bottom end at the front of the car kept scraping the road when he was going fast... sparks were coming out of the bottom of it...

[Rhea21]

mate dosent really matter if its 50bhp or 1000bhp we still all have to go the same speed!

[bark]

Re-read the post, don't skim over it like you normally do.

I said i'd 'race' the corsa once it's done, and get the same results as you! ;)

As for my e-hardness, it's better than street racing ;)

[Pat_Vts]

i know i didnt go all the way i stopped shortly after and let him go past lol

[bark]

It's not that low like ...

Surely the aftermarket sus kit would prevent this from happening ...

[potatopete]

Likewise, £200 car or £12000 car, we all get stuck in the same traffic jams etc!!

i wish i got a vid now lol - of the sparks coming out under the car

[GabbaKid]

My vts eats red tops for fun.

[bark]

I'm not bothered about having a vtr, doesn't make up for your lack of penis pat ...

Could easily go out and buy a faster car, but i'm more than happy with my car.

OH I also have a car that's HPI clear, could easily get a VTS which was previously wrote off

[DamoVTS]

wooo gonna swap it for my VTS!!! fierce man roflmao

Thinking maybe you mean "Scalextric"?

[Pat_Vts]

lol i fort u ment me having a vtr?

i like my vts anyway, always wanted to try VTS it just came up and i thought wow go for it... its my car so

and woooooo about hpi clear big dealll!!!!

no more personal comments from me... and your just being e-hard congrats on winning gold award for sunday night e-hardness

[bark]

Thinking maybe you mean "Scalextric"?

Probably the only place a standard VTS would be able to keep up with a Corsa redtop?

[shooorn94]

Godammit I was hoping the arguing carried on, I had the perfect picture... damn you pat for being a bigger man.

[bullit]

two different things pete. yes i knew i spelt it shit

Oh, well fucking post it anyway! Could do with a laugh!

[Pat_Vts]

wont ever know unless a std vts comes up against that redtop in a 1/4 mile but i would bet £50 on the vts winning ... providing its driven right

[shooorn94]

I may do, old image anywho... will wait for Bark to keep antagonising pat. Lol.

Soooooo want to comment, but shall wait for someone else to notice this ...
Corsa redtops do 0-60 in i'm sure a couple of secs faster than a vts?

[Mattt-VTR]

I would of though so my friend.

[Steve]

firstly
that corsa may not be 170bhp but it will be over 150 for sure, unless the engine is fucked.

secondly
*insert picture of racing your saxo you look a cunt*

admiting to street racing on a public forum is just stupid

thirdly
unless taht corsa lad cant drive, there is no chance in hell in a straight line a VTR would beat a red top corsa. unless again his engine is fucked.

[saxokid100]

flolololol at this thread. I would put my car on the corsa being quicker than a standard vts never mind £50!

Anyway what's wrong with exaggerating bhp???

saxo180

[Karl]

a Corsa B with a redtop engine...slower than a VTR...
I somewhat doubt it, lol.

[MK2SLAG]

as said 152bhp v vts 152bhp wil take a vts anyday

I had to react, go onto corsa forums and stick up for saxos, and vice versa.

Both have pros and cons, and each to their own!

Even better when they get onto street racing love it!

[JC-Furio]

There's no need to keep making a point of saying "standard" everytime somebody says VTS. When they say VTS they imply that it's standard, if they were implying otherwise they would say cammed etc.

well i put a ferrari enzo engine into my vtr!
then remapped it, full induction kit, full 24carat gold exhaust system, new cams,enlarges throttle bodies!
the wee vtr is putting out 742bhp!! seriously!

[Mk1VTR]

lol only joking for those of you who may believe me! haha

[Mike_08]

i have 4 sax p stickers so mines got to be a good 200+ now

[Mk1VTR]

well ive got 2 janspeed stickers from halfords so mines can go from 0-60 in just over 1.74 secs, i was going to put go-faster stripes up the bonnet and roof but i thought if i did that i may break may neck with all the torque i'll be putting out!

[gozzy-vtr]

2ltr 16v redtop in a corsa, slower than a vtr? lmfao geez, they're 150 standard, its easy 160bhp, if u raced and won id put it down to driving skill, my mates uncle had a redtop turbo 280bhp. n that still aint much, u can get 300+out of a redtop

even seagulls can beat vtrs

[gouldy87]

lol as my good friend ginge pointed out- he has a mint standard mk 2 astra gte 2.0 16v red top. there are approx 150 bhp. i av a mk2 vts with some slight modifications e.g manifold, de cat etc. his car pulls away from mine never mind a vtr! lol

[Japman]

If it's slower than a vtr then something is seriously wrong.

1 2 combination ftw

redtops are 152 standard

will beat a vtr anyday off the week
