It still scratches the kit even with hydraulics though apparantly only 2 of the exhausts actually work and there the ones on the far side the middle one does not work and the 2 beside them do not work either :lol:

hmmm yeah ... theres enough guys on MIG that have put cavalier 2.0 turbo engines into novas and corsas.... hows that for a g40-baiting street sleeper :D (but, hows the handling with one of those heavy beasts up front?)

not all nova/corsa drivers are chav bling bling 1.0 nob-heads i guess... though there's still a big quotient!

A lot of my mates have Modded cars

We have:
Garys Punto GT- Only visual mods are 17" black chrome rims and slammed on its A**e, He has done loads of work on the engine and got a Apexi boost controller. Not sure what BHP it is, but its a hell of a lot for a 1.4, Raced a Skyline last week and kept up with it. 1/4 mile time is high 13's

Reidys Bravo - Mostly body mods inc badboy bonnet, full resprey, Lowered, Big wheels and painted back lights. Engine is a 1.2 with Full S/S exhaust and air filter.

Brians Corsa - Curently off the road and been off for a while, He has a 2.0 Turbo in it with Massive brakes (12") and when its on the road later this year or the start of next he is hoping it will be in excess of 300BHP. Only Mods are gonna be Lowered, Big wheels, Color coded body trim and a TD badge at the back, lol The car is also getting stripped out.

Thats to name a few there is loads more.
