Corsa VXR tuning by COURTENAY SPORT

The new Corsa VXR is a fresh new car from Vauxhall, fitted with the new Z16LER engine featuring Bosch Motronic 7.6.3 engine management. The engine is equipped with a turbo charger from the German manufacture KKK, suppliers of the turbo units on the recent Vauxhall 2.0 turbo engines. The engine also features high quality low compression pistons complete with under piston oil spray cooling jets.

Following a fairly lengthy and intense development program which involved a good deal of testing in Germany (which gives courtanay the opportunity of testing at sustained load for extended periods of time), They have developed a range of packages and components best suited to this application. These components are the result of numerous product versions, tests and variants over an extended development program, designed to optimise your car whilst maximising your enjoyment through enhanced performance and integrity.




Corsa VXR Tuning Packages

All Corsa VXR remapping is carried out serially, through OBD II/diagnostic port directly into the vehicle's ecu.
All maps are bespoke written for courtenay sport to suit requirements. If your car does not fit into the categories listed, for example you have a different exhaust configuration, they can and will write a bespoke map and tailor it to your vehicle.

Courtenay Sport Stage 1*
They carry out a full engine diagnostic test first. Then Exclusive Courtenay Sport software is installed raising the boost levels, whilst optimising the fuel and timing curves. A Rolling Road calibration, set up and testing session follows. Power and Torque Graph Print Outs



Courtenay Sport Stage 2 with 76mm exhaust
First they carry out a full engine diagnostic test. The exhaust is then derestricted with a full turbo back 76mm (3") system. This comprises of a high flow downpipe and sports cat section that removes the pre cat which is not a legal requirement once the car is registered and adds a high flow sports cat. A performance exhaust with 2 silencers** is also included for better gas flow whilst providing an improved sound track to drive to! Exclusive Courtenay Sport Stage 2 Software is then installed, finishing with a Rolling Road calibration, set up and testing session. Power and Torque Graph Print Outs.

Courtenay Sport Stage 3 with 76mm exhaust
Following a full engine diagnostic test, they concentrate on maximising cooling efficiency of both inlet charge air temperature and water temperature with the fitment of our massive high flow intercooler. This intercooler features air guide blades to maximise the air flow back through to the water radiator. This stops the air that enters the bumper washing out through the easiest route, i.e. around past the fog lamps and away, thus utilising all the air that enters the bumper. A full turbo back 76mm (3") performance exhaust system is fitted featuring a motorsport catalyst, no pre cat and a 76mm cat back exhaust system with 2 silencers**. Finally the Exclusive Courtenay Sport Stage 3 Software is installed, finishing with a Rolling Road calibration, set up and testing session. Power and Torque Graph Print Outs.
** Single silencer option available (Less £120)

not bad at all those packages, if it was about 150kg lighter so it was about a tonne it would be pretty deadly, mind you anyone serious will be able to lose that weight if needed i reckon
