616 BHP Vauxhall Nova Opel Corsa - amazing! - C20LET Power

Found these kewl C20XE Redtop A2 Stainless Steel Rocker Cover Bolt kit sets on ebay anyone interested? http://bit.ly/cKRKTV

I think this is some Scandinavian nutters with a C20LET Nova producing over 600BHP - just check the speedo & how fast it climbs! From around 70mph straight round to 140mph - i.e. off the clock and back to the stop - nothing to do with us, but a fantastic video none the less...

To point you to my previous/standard responses,
1) It's Not mine
2) I wouldn't do it that way
3) Take the engine in isolation
4) Despite their terrible 'bad boy' image, nova's were/ actually good cars! (argumentative I know!) - But I like to see a reasoned response
5) We build purposeful cars not things like this - see http://www.ppp-106.co.uk
6) But it is all meant as fun & a testament to what people can achieve, when applied!

Regardless of how the term Scandinavia is used outside the region, the terms Nordic countries and Nordic region are used officially and unambiguously to identify the nations of Norway, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, Denmark, the Danish territory of the Faroe Islands, and the Finnish territory of Åland as politically and culturally similar entities.

I have to admit to being burned off from the lights by one of these beasts. I gave it my all in 1st and second, actually was ahead of it briefly, but by the time I got to 5th gear it was powering past me and away just accelerating to beyond 30mph, so I selected the large chainring on my mountain bike and just cruised, was too puffed to go faster.

@jknR What are you on about boy?!

[jknR]

@frankieflash 900 RR Honda is a litlebit slower.

600bhp in a fwd! in makes no sense as you can only put 300bhp max depending on tyre width! it will just wheel spin and make you look a fool when you try to beat a scooby or porshe and you can't get the power down! not trying to put you down love novas owned five of em and there ace tuned up but once i got mine to 300bhp it was the limit and the only way forward was front drag radials which are to wide for the car and not road legal! I have a tuned escort cossie and i still miss my nova :(
