A mate of mines got a corsa C with an astra gsi engine with it but running various vxr parts (turbo, injectors etc I think) and that's running not far off 300bhp, goes like stink.

I dont even think there would be 50kg difference, probably closer to 30kg !!

I have lifted / moved both engines (with a friend) and there don't feel like there was much in it.

It was a guy on CorsaSport who was meant to have weighed them.

I have a stripped Nova redtop, the most fun car I have ever driven. And being so light it is pretty damn fast! Not much came past me out on track last time. Infact down the straight I passed a 225bhp Leon cupra r on full chat. The engine is superb. It is very driveable yet when the loud pedal hits the floor it will embarrass many more expensive cars. A limited slip diff is recommended though. Wheelspin can get a little excessive at times.
