Life, Cars, Fitness, Music, And General Rantings: Corsa

Well my s reg corsa sport, got a week off work to do the head gasket so i done a few bits,

c16xe head, bigger inlet ports as standard-fact

x16xe inlet, bigger tracks as standard-fact

power-box

tx auto sport water rail...... well at least i would however so far its 6 days late and apparently there no closer to sending it as they were 3 days ago, 2 weeks they have had so far and originally I was told it would take a week. this is the only thing holding me up....

So for some photos:

Above is the throttle body drilled out to allow fitting ti the power box and a gasket tapped out using a spanner (snap-on of course)

Below is the new inlet off the c16xe as you can see the port measures 20-14,5cm which gives us 55mm port width

Below x14xe head port measures 20mm-15.1-15.2mm which makes 49mm max

Below is the x16xe inlet manifold with part number displayed, this part number is contrary to popular belief LARGER then the x14xe inlet manifold bore, this is not urban myth any more!

Below is the measurement of the x16xe inlet at 20-14.9cm so 51mm this is the flat that butts to the head

Below is the top of the lower inlet manifold if the x16xe is 19.9cm - 15.2cm which gives us 47mm

Below inlet bolted onto the c16 head

EGR blanking plate goes on the shiny bit here as when fitting the power box the throttle body moving up top leaves this open to air, which you don't want....
