Here?s some pics of Opel Corsa A GSi turbo. It?s based on E16SE engine and on dyno it pushed 275HP at flywheel.

you got that much power out of a SOHC? what all did you do to it to get that much power?

Hei!

That is a nice looking vehicle. I'm curious to the exact setup as well.

Don't you mean C16SE.... which is the 8V cousin of the Lanos and Aveo engines??

Very nice setup.... I've allways liked the Corsa.

WooHoo... a 16V isn't going to make all that much more power than an 8V.

He's probably running a custom 8V camshaft

Impresive numbers...

Erfinder: with that same bottom and a good 16v head i bet i can beat that

I love Corsa A's i've seen a couple of those crying to have a good owner

Actually it?s based on E16SE, earlier model of C16SE. The camshaft and valves are stantard. Head is slightly ported. Low compression racepistons from Wiseco, and custom made steel conrods in the bottom. KKK k16 turbo, running 25 psi boost does the job. I believe it?s capable for over 330 hp, but the injectors I used were too small. I have to get bigger ones. Steel flywheel, cintered clutch and F28-6 speed with custom steel driveshafts will have to cope with the power. It now revs easy to rev limiter in 6th gear, 270km/h. So maybe I need some bigger wheels as well.

What's the difference between the E16SE and C16SE ??

This is the first time I've heard of an "E" designation.

E stands for "euronorm", earlier standard for exhaust emissions in europe. The E16SE uses Bosch Jetronic four point injection and distributor ignition. The C16SE uses Siemens Multec electronic injection and direct ignition. Otherwise the engines are the same.

This is very nice indeed!!!

Too bad I cannot bring my GsiTurbo over there, we would have a nice race

Excellent job!!!

Out of curiousity, how does it work with the local emmission laws? I have a friend in Sweden, and from what I understand he has to remove the turbo setup from his C20NE turbo Kadett once a year.

Perhaps we could meet halfway, maybe in Iceland, and have a race there

. Sure it?s difficult, once a year the car has to be taken to inspection and it has to pass the emission test. I?m using fully programmable engine management system and there?s special program in ECU every time the car is tested. So basically, we cheat the inspector.

Technically it is, but unfortunately it is required in some countries to have a modified car.

Well, if I?m going to end up burning in hell, I?m sure going to get there fast and with style. :twisted:
