Corsa OPC

Polo GTI

Hi, I have a Megane RS and I don't rate the PGTI at all, never driven one but have taken it from robot to robot plenty of times..

there is no way a PGTI will outrun the Subaru WRX Sti, maybe the normally aspirated versions but not the big boy..

The OPC sticks with the GTI ... not beats it.

Anyway - when can Gtech your GTI and get real figures? I don't quite see you beating any of those cars you mention ...

Just my 5c worth ...

Keep in mind the GTi is a 2.0L and the OPC is a 1.6L ... makes you think.

Imagine a 2L OPC :D

Think what ? the 2L OPC (Astra) has a KO4 turbo, so how is that fair when majority of GTi's are fitted with the smaller KO3 turbo ?

Yeh - but imagine a 2.0L corsa OPC.

Corsa OPC, Fiesta ST & Polo GTi = similar class (all 2L engines - cept for the 1.6 Corsa)

Astra OPC , Focus ST & Golf5 GTi = similar class (all 2L engines)

What I was saying is imagine if the Corsa OPC comes out with a 2L as well.
 
*nods* And it does ...

Anyway JK8 ... how many times in this thread have I said the GTI beats the OPC marginally? No where did I say it beats it ...

I think you're just trying to annoy me :(

Corsa OPC = 1.6 Turbocharged
Fiesta ST = 2.0 N/A
Polo GTI = 1.8 Turbocharged

Astra OPC = 2.0L Turbocharged
Focus ST = 2.5L Turbocharged
Golf 5 GTI = 2.0L Turbocharged


If the Corsa OPC (which is a joke btw) were to come out with the 2L engine, turbocharged, then what's the use of the Astra? :rolleyes:

I agree with JK8 here, the Corsa OPC is not that impressive, you can say what you like but a couple of stock Focus ST's have already beat them pretty good (a view car lengths) in some TLGP's. And don't come with the engine have to be ridden in cr@p, most new cars today can be pushed hard right of the showroom floor. One of the Focus ST's that beat the Corsa actually had a faulty turbo as well and is being replaced because the car is not performing as the Focus ST should... :p

you are really ignorant to make such a comment.

The engine has to work gentle for at least a 1000k's before you can hammer it, cos everything is 'new'. That run-in process is very crucial. Ask any performance guru, he will tell you the same.
