corsa 1.6 sport will piss on a vtr. but does that matter?
turbo is. Blacky has a very impressive turbo'd 8v!

cams, chip and a remap and some breathing mods also a lighnened and ballanced flywheel and a better gearbox vts/ or 1.4 xsi or 1.1 box is better plus a decat if you havent allready got one

I beat a Corsa GSI 1.6 16v and a corsa sport (thought these was 1.4 16v's?) In my 8v.
4-2-1
race centre
backbox
Green cotton enclosed filter
1.1 gearbox
stripped
So yeah is do-able.

Strip the thing out
PH3s and a remap
Panel filter, extra ducting to airbox
Go and give it a go. But a breathed on VTS will beat him easily

So you can really justify the comparably massive cost of a turbo conversion just to beat your mates corsa on the street?
16v lump, cam it., job's a good'un

I actually thought vtr's were quicker than corsa 1.6 sports anyway?

I have had a corsa c16xe back in the day, They don't feel as quick as the vtr's but don't exactly hammer the vtr around like I did the corsa kind of grown out of it.

Are we talking corsa B here?
1.6 16V Sport 3d
9.5 secs
119 mph
104 bhp
On paper yours would win.. (unless its the 90bhp version)
1.6i VTR 3d (99)
9.1 secs
120 mph
100 bhp

I think you will find that most people that come on these forums are car enthusiasts and the last thing they want to do is ding their motor , for all we know he could be racing his mate on a strip , so why not just give him advise rather than come to conclusions

They (VTS) do have 20bhp over a MK2 VTR and 30bhp over a MK1 VTR. That means it pisses all over the MK1 VTR and pulls away with ease from the MK2 VTR. Plus gains can be made a lot easier as if you look around this forum countless times people have said the 16v engine is a much better engine for mods. For the cost of the conversion its worth doing.
Turbo/Supercharger would be the only way to majorly increase power but costing a lot more than the 16v engine.

another thread full of bollocks, i tire of this crap
1/ a vts is faster then a vtr
2/he's very unlikely to be racing his mate on the strip
3/he seems to have a very poor grasp of the English language and even more limited capability to type it

vts not a lot quicker than vtr? are you retarded? Keep it in high revs and you'll dick all over a VTR, With the breathing mods you've got on your vtr (if it's a decent system) you'll shit all over him when you 16v it.
16v it.
Cam it with PH3s and a re-map
Throttle bodies. Map it all up and you'll piss on most cars.

Sorry but whats wrong with this? Okay the guy said "cams" when its just a single cam 8v unit but everything else is more or less sound advice. He didnt mention oiling his cambelt though haha
