Yea it would but I am not getting ahead of myself. The war dept has already approved a cai tuner and cat back

So I have ordered an S&B cai am working on an sct livewire to and I have no idea what exhaust to get for these things.

My auto cross car had a corsa and I loved it but I don't even see them mentioned on here.

Congrats on the truck!

Skip the CAI. It does nothing but make loud noises.

I have an Edge tuner and Corsa db cat-back exhaust. Love the tuner and exhaust. I went up a size in tires (33.2") and the tuner brought the power back to what it was with stock wheels and tires (maybe a bit more power).

What did you autocross? I had a e36m3 that I used for track days and auto-x's.

Well cai is already almost here and loud noise is not all bad. As soon as I said I had not seen a corsa on the forum last night someone mentioned it in the 09-later area. Going to have to look at it as I said I loved them.

I auto crossed a supercharged cobalt it was only an e class car but man I had a lot of wrench time on that thing and knew it in and out. I miss it bad. Now though my wife agreed that when my son is old enough I can order a factory five kit and we are going to build that!!

Where did you do road courses. I only have been to VIR

I've had my Corsa for about a year and 6k miles (I don't drive my truck much) and it's great. Absolutely no drone on the highway. It has a nice growl when you get on the gas but not too loud.

I did all the work on my m3 too. I don't trust mechanics so even when I had warranty work done, I'd double check their work. Building a kit car sounds awesome.

I lived about an hour from Willow Springs so I went there the most with various clubs. Button Willow and Laguna Seca were the others. When I moved back to the east coast, I tried to get to Lime Rock but it was always full 3 yrs in a row so I gave up. Probably why I don't like BMW CCA on the east coast. I did VIR in Roos open wheel cars. That was fun.
